The first step you take in any journey is often harder than the next 10 put together. The fear that comes with putting your initial mark on a blank canvas is enough to put many would-be pioneers off starting anything at all.

Is that a bit dramatic? The point is, it’s hard to decide on a topic for your first ever blog post on your BRAND NEW website. We’ve been racking our brains about the best way to showcase what makes Alphageek such a special digital agency. As with much of our work – the answer lay in the talents and personalities of our team.

With this in mind, we asked everyone for a few words on who they are and what they do. Like with the best Alphageek projects, this inaugural blog is an entirely collaborative effort!
