Peaktwo is a marketing and web performance agency. We build digital experiences to help brands climb higher and grow faster.

With a rare blend of analytical and creative powers, Mike leads Peaktwo in delivering innovative strategies and digital solutions to high-growth businesses. Over three decades in marketing and technology have sharpened his ability to assess challenges, simplify complexity, and inspire action.

Mike founded Peaktwo in 2008 after leading teams at VC-backed tech companies, where he learned the value of moving fast and with precision. Known for his direct, transparent, and no-nonsense approach, Mike helps clients cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters to drive meaningful change.

When he isn’t working on the business, Mike enjoys time with his family and dogs, swinging the golf club, and sliding down the snowy side of a mountain. He’s known to covet a good bourbon, cold weather, and a roaring fire. A transplant from New Jersey via Boston via Washington DC, he still roots for the New York Yankees and avoids traffic whenever possible.

Want something done? Just get Charis on it. Known as the Peaktwo pacemaker, Charis (it rhymes with Paris) keeps all the plates spinning and makes sure none of them crash. How does she do it? It’s all in her roll-up-your-sleeves attitude, her ability to juggle and shift with ease, and her refreshingly no-drama outlook.

From managing the financials, to making meaningful reports out of columns of data, to poring over the nitty-gritty details within each project, Charis happily cracks the whip and sweats the small stuff—all while managing to be one of the most easy-going people we know. (Maybe it’s the accent?) Before coming to Peaktwo, Charis worked for some of the world’s largest and most reputable marketing service and IT industry consultancies.

Born in Scotland, she graduated from the UK’s Coventry University with a degree in equine studies, giving her equal parts horse sense and business sense. When she’s not wrangling our projects, she enjoys spending time with her son and daughter, ages 20 and 18, hiking with her husband and two dogs, and leading numerous church activities.

With 10+ years of professional web development experience, Brandon can navigate his way around a data driven back-end as well as a highly stylized front-end project. This guy codes.

Emily is our “Swiss Army knife”, adapting and integrating effortlessly through a forest of account and project scenarios. Her versatile nature is an essential tool as she leads clients along the creative journey. She’ll get you from Basecamp to summit as easily as she climbed Mount Katahdin at the end of the Appalachian Trail!

Born and raised in Maine, Emily loves the mountains. She also enjoys strolling through the small town where she lives with her rescue dog, Sadie. When she’s not outside, you may find her on the couch learning how to knit a hat, or with family at monthly game nights.

Lee graduated from East Carolina University with a bachelors degree in fine arts, concentrating in graphic design. He has a focus on solving bold business problems through digital experiences. He has 8+ years of experience in UX/UI, Brand Identity, Brand Strategy and Marketing.

Whenever Lee is not designing he’s probably out on a boat, golfing or hanging out with his wife and pup.

Kevin is a dynamic and creative marketer, specializing in growth and inbound strategies to help elevate the Peaktwo brand and engage our audiences. With a diverse background across global brands, tech-focused agencies, and the entertainment industry, he thrives on crafting compelling narratives, content programs, and creative ways to share our knowledge with prospects and customers.

Beyond marketing, you’re likely to find Kevin out on a long run, traveling to new countries with his wife, or writing music for TV and Film.

Kendall has over a decade of experience turning complex ideas into delightful, approachable digital experiences. She has a passion for precision, bringing a detail-oriented approach to each project. A lover of context, she thrives on deeply understanding each client’s needs to ensure that every collaboration is tailored to meet and exceed their goals.

Outside of work, Kendall is surrounded by four-legged friends—whether it’s her own dog and cat at home or the animals she volunteers with at the local shelter. She enjoys recharging by reading novels, running, and hiking the many scenic trails of Western North Carolina.

Julia joins Peaktwo as the new marketing coordinator, bringing strong business acumen and a passion for sustainability and innovation. A recent NC State graduate with a degree in Business Administration, she blends her strong academic background with project management and operations skills to drive impactful outcomes.

When Julia isn’t working, she enjoys spending time with her cat, Ollie, exploring Charlotte’s local venues, cooking, and unwinding at the movies. Her balance of professional focus and personal creativity fuels her enthusiasm for making a difference.
