"Personally, what matters to me is being a grandma, family, friends and my house full of animals!"
Pat utilizes her 25 plus years in advertising and marketing to help clients grow and build their business. "What matters to me is that we improve a client's bottom line. The way we use creativity, technology and psychology to do it is what fascinates me the most. In my personal life, what matters most is my family, my animals, great food and a good bottle of wine. What else does a girl need?"

Norman is one of our most coveted employees. It isn't because he outshines the rest of us, but because he makes the rest of us shine. Although you may not think you see him when you stop by our office, you may not be looking in the right places. He's propping up our thought bubbles as we concept new ideas. He's subtly tipping the camera ensuring we take a photo at just that right angle. He's moving the box, forcing us to think outside of it. We are each creative in different ways, and what matters most to Norman is bringing it out in all of us.
As the Art Director, what matters most to Matt is "big ideas with follow-through." He uses his seven years of art and design experience to ensure that everything we create, produce and design is creative, inspired and of the highest quality. He understands that there is a fine line between genius and crazy. He explains, "I try to stay on the 'genius' side of things, but then again, I really am a fan of 'crazy.'"
Who knew that such a shy, quiet person could hold this much creativity and talent? Bernice explains that what matters to her most is thinking of her creative process as an adventure into her subconscious, "Sometimes I may get lost in there and-just sometimes-you may just have to fish me back out." Fishing her out is always worth it as we reap the rewards of her creative brilliance.

Not actually a robot, what many understand as "boop bop beep bop boop" is actually Nathan's web developer jargon as he turns a designer's vision into the complex computer language of 1s and 0s. As a Web Developer, what matters most to Nathan is taking dynamic designs and creating a simplistic solution, or as Nathan says, "Boop Bop Beep…Bop."

What do you get when you add great cook to accounting whiz, multiplied by Germany? Regina! As our Bookkeeper, precise accounting records matter most to her. And lucky for us, so does being a fabulous cook. She also loves spending time with her family, reading in German to keep up her native tongue and going back home.
What matters most to Alissa is to always ask questions. Her inquisitive nature drives her to do her homework, be prepared and stay one step ahead of the needs of our clients. Barring her rocketing success in the ad industry, she continues to work on her backup career as a professional kickboxer and Stevie Nicks wannabe.
Hailing from the Windy City via Miami, Amanda has fallen in love with the city and people of Austin. Her skills in sales brings her to MM as an Account Coordinator, overseeing the job flow of the creative and web development teams and managing clients' social media strategies. Professionally, what matters most to her is building lasting relationships with clients. Outside of work she enjoys good people, being with family, traveling, and watching the "U" play football.
