We are deeply saddened by the devastation in WNC, and appreciate all the outreach and offerings of support. To make your impact on the recovery, please consider supporting the efforts of our good friends and local Boone, NC non-profit – Wine to Water.
We don’t just build websites — we create digital experiences that make an impact. By combining creative ideas with smart strategies, we focus on delivering real results. And with our dedication to excellence and great client service, we’re here to help you reach your goals and elevate your mission.
Always be learning.
Every project provides a new opportunity to learn. Find it and learn the heck out of it.
Challenge the traditional.
The best solution is out there. Never be afraid to raise your hand and challenge anything that isn't.
Exceed expectations.
Our standards are high, and that's right where we like them.
We are a savvy group of storytellers and creatives who love sipping coffee, playing with our dogs (and a few cats), hiking mountains, and skiing down them.
A self-proclaimed “strategic-creative” hybrid, Mike began his career in advertising & design before attending The George Washington University for his MBA in the late 90s. The resulting left-brain/right-brain skill set uniquely positioned him to help clients solve complex problems with truly visionary solutions.
He founded Peaktwo in 2008 to help companies reach new levels of success. Whether that was navigating an acquisition, rolling out a new product, or managing rapid growth. Today Mike defines success levels differently, as more clients aspire to grow their business through more purpose-driven narratives.
As the CEO and Creative Director at Peaktwo, Mike brings his detail-obsessed, laser-focused intensity to every client, every project — every time. He thinks on his feet and often with his hands (and a drawing tool). He’s usually the one pacing around the whiteboard, scratching out notes, and sketching ideas.
When he isn’t working with clients, you’ll find him spending time with his family and their two dogs. Those of you who really know him may strenuously disagree and place him on the golf course or the side of a mountain. A transplant from New Jersey, he still roots for the New York Yankees, and after 17 years in Washington DC, avoids rush-hour traffic as much as 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’s keeping up with her soccer-loving son and daughter, ages 17 and 15, hiking with her husband and three 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.
