Ms Mia
Head of PR
Mia, our in-house pup, is so sweet that meeting her may leave you needing a diet.
She came into our lives in December 2015 at the tender age of 6 months. A wire-haired miniature dachshund and rescue from the Florence Humane Society – (Florence, Oregon) Mia quickly became a beloved part of the studio.
She is lively, playful, incredibly smart, and full of personality. Mia’s name in Hebrew means beloved. It also means ‘mine’. Around here, Mia is known as the official welcome wagon, always ready to charm and lovingly lick her way into hearts.
Best of all? She looks just like a Jim Henson Muppet and we think she may be part Ewok too.

A Business Building Tip For You
In today’s fast-moving digital world, building a website may seem more accessible than ever, especially with the rise of D.I.Y (Do It Yourself), platforms and now AI-driven tools. Even so, I still believe there is real value in hiring a professional when you want your business to show up in a polished, strategic, and more effective way online.
I’ve included a short video here to help explain why. While the video itself may be a bit older, the core message behind it is still highly relevant today, and in some ways even more so. So before taking the D.I.Y route, take a moment to watch and see why D.I.Y website builders can sometimes do more harm than good.
So, take a moment to watch this short YouTube video and see why D.I.Y. Website Builders can sometimes turn into real Do It Yourself Bummers.
