Tim Hinkel

Tim has the job of coordinating all the work that goes on here. He also has the inside voice of business at OrcaPack so if you have an idea or want to work out  a deal, e-mail him with the specifics and he will try to make it happen.  If he is not at his desk, he will get back to you shortly he is probably off brewing some coffee.  Coffee yum.

Every company needs an idea person. You know, the person who dreams up wild and magical ways to do things. Tim is that guy. He is constantly talking about new ideas and better ways to do things. With Tim its always about how to do it more productively.  Wether is be a better way to drive across town or collect names for a newsletter, there must be a better way.

He is the guy go to with ideas to find the holes and make them better.

Sayf Sharif

Sayf pronounced ("safe") is a developer. He has been learning to code ever since his father brought home a TRS-80 Color Computer. He even have some print outs of early programs I wrote from scratch.

He is a designer. He has always been into art and doodling.  

He is a user experience expert. He went to graduate school for Anthropology and have always been a keen student of my fellow primates. How do they think? How do they work? Why? He often will ask people questions or make statements from a logical non-human standpoint in order to gauge people’s reactions. He always find it more interesting when the apes get riled up, and can’t adequately defend their actions in words.

He is a geek. He reads geeky things, watches geeky shows, does geeky stuff. He has a star wars tatoo, lego sets for myself, a World of Warcraft account with an embarrassingly large /played number. Etc.
