How we earned our Aeron chairs

We have worked in Advertising, IT, and E-learning. We've been Literary Agents, Directors of Operations and Managing Editors. We know how to manage writers and creatives because we’ve been in their shoes, mostly during ungodly hours of the night in the company of frazzled designers, programmers and cold Chinese food.

Principals

Britta Alexander has over 10 years of experience as a professional writer and editor. She has served as managing editor for a family of regional lifestyle publications, and worked in New York City as a literary agent, where she edited the work of bestselling authors. Britta began her career as an advertising copywriter, developing print, television and radio campaigns for Fortune 500 companies. She holds a Master’s of Fine Arts in Writing from Vermont College, and divides her time between Sarasota and New York. When she’s not writing, Britta can be found listening to The Dirty Three and reminiscing about the day Ric Ocasek told her he liked her violin playing.

Ian Alexander has held fancy titles like Director of Technology Projects and Director of Operations for New York City area technology firms before moving back to his real love, writing. He has managed content projects in affiliate marketing, publishing, outsourcing, and retail. When Ian's not working, you can find him blustering about the relevance of quality Web 2.0 content on the EAT MEDIA blog or reading one of the 314 magazines scattered around the office, with post it notes close at hand.
