    Jonathan Yarbor

    Chief Executive Officer

    I'm a startup entrepreneur, self-taught software engineer, systems architect, hobbiest home-chef, father, and gamer.

    Gaming has played a foundational role in my life. No exaggeration: my first word was "SEGA" from the opening of Sonic The Hedgehog. I've built thriving gaming communities and brought the world a little closer in gaming in my career.

    James Ross

    Chief Technical Officer

    I've always been interested in game server hosting and began satisfying that interest from a very young age, building and maintaining gaming communities for years. I'm a self-taught software engineer and am excited to be working towards the future of online gaming. I'm also extremely passionate about web performance and security, and you'll often find me tweeting or blogging about these topics.

    Ben Riffey

    Chief Communication Officer

    I'm an illustrator and graphic designer who has been playing games as long as I can remember, from Tiger handhelds before I could get a Gameboy, to PC gaming. I'm a giant WoW nerd, but on an RP server. So I'm really good at standing in towns for long periods of time.

    Director Of Product

    My life has been driven by curiosity; never a person to accept the "status quo", I've spent a lifetime challenging the reason why a thing is done and inspecting how it could be done better. This has led me to a career in Product Management where I get to discover problems and build and iterate on solutions to make the world around me better.

    Combining this passion with a life-long obsession with gaming is a dream come true.

    Ashley Powers

    Director of Support

    I started my gaming journey with a chunky black and white Game Boy and today, I've been involved in the server hosting industry for over 10 years with a longstanding goal to provide excellent customer service to gamers just like me. Outside of work, I spend my time reading, pursuing my Master's degree, playing video games, and caring for my mini petting zoo of 4 dogs, 4 cats, 2 reptiles, and fish!
