Hans is the former CEO of a company that made a little program called WinZip. He joined the team to help us grow and get even better at making software. Hans is Dutch and lives in the Netherlands, so he spends a lot of time expanding CoffeeCup in Europe. Yippie!

Being a world traveler, Hans has seen and done a lot of things. He was still a little surprised by the heat in our south Texas jalapeños. It’s okay though — Hans will probably find something to surprise us with when we visit Holland.

Suzanne likes barbecue and guys named Ferris, buys a lot of fancy shoes, and says things like “Stay outta my grill.” She reminds us of Hammy from Over the Hedge, because she’s always running around at 200 mph answering phones and doing office stuff. We try to get her to slow down, but it’s no use.

She’s actually a really nice girl from someplace where they grow lots of corn. If you ever visit our office, she’s probably the first person you’ll see, so please be nice to her.

The story of Nacho seems totally fictional, even to us. The legend says he was born in prison from a brilliant brick and programmed his way out while only 3 months old. He then trained an anonymous Boy Scout troop near Los Angeles to grow and maintain server farms. Being bored, he built his very own Thunder Hawk spaceship, and with that, made his appearance in various cartoons. 

Now, if that seems crazy to you, you haven't been in the same office with him. We're not even sure what his real name is, or if he even has a name. The only thing we know for sure is that his code works like magic, and that's what really counts!

Being around Diego is like watching a movie at quadruple speed. Everything he does is so fast that we can’t tell when he takes off his jacket, sits down, stands up, makes a run to the water cooler, or if that all magically happens at the same time… He beats us at foosball so fast that now we just watch him play in awe.

He also likes really small cars, and really hot coffee. We have to agree with him about the coffee, even if he drinks it before it’s done brewing.

Now here’s a guy we can all call a geek and not feel bad about it. Jeff is currently learning several new programming languages in addition to the 14 he knows now. Every day he comes in talking about some “cool function” or “the way you compare literals.” (Yeah, he really talks like that.) We just smile and pat him on the head.

In addition to working here, Jeff is finishing up his study on stacking random objects. When he quits coming by our desks and trying to stack everything he can get his hands on, we might take him seriously and let him drive without a chaperone (well, once he learns to drive a stick). Oh, by the way, he also cheats at foosball.

We are not quite sure when the Gatekeeper joined our team. He swears that he has been with us for years and he’s just so dedicated that he worked himself to the bones. 

Mike is our designated hitter when things get rough (which is a lot, by the way). He is a programmer who fishes from an oversized rowboat on the weekends and appreciates quiet walks on the beach and a warm glass of milk before bed.

We think the work he has done on the HTML Editor is fantastic, and we can’t wait for him to make more software like Sitemapper or Website Insight. Mike enjoys a certain amount of seniority, so if he didn’t work from home he could use it to get some nice office supplies from the secret stash.

Budgets, plans, numbers, product specing, financials, content creation, accrual accounting, AARGH.. That's just a crazy pizza combination of all ingredients! Luckily for us, Bob loves making software and writing and web design and people and accounting. Seems like a match made in heaven. Bob used to craft plans and crunch numbers for people like Heineken, L’Oreal, and some giant German bank. And when plans come together there's nobody that says EBITDA with more enthusiasm.

When Bob isn’t up to his ears in CoffeeCup affairs, he likes Sam Adams, live music, and wacky American sitcoms. Since he lives in the Netherlands, American TV shows are hard to come by. Maybe that’s why he moved to Atlanta.

Scott is the original founder of Tucows, the pioneer of software download sites. He likes to “boldly go” where no man has gone before… In fact his passport has more stamps than Bugs Bunny’s suitcase. If anybody knows how to promote and distribute software online, it’s Scott. He’s a snappy dresser too.

Scott was also honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the SIAF (Shareware Industry Awards Foundation), although not for his sense of style. Congrats Scooter!

Adam knows how to create magic with websites and make them look their absolute best! We are intrigued by his wicked computer skills since he is convinced he is a time traveler from the Renaissance Era. He loves good food, hanging with family, and is always cool as a cucumber. In fact he's so laid back he uses exclamations like "Far Fig newton" or "Oh Fudge" which always has a way of making everyone laugh.

Alberto is a first-class C++ guy and a total fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Metallica, and a lot of other rock’n’roll bands… and he plays bass in two bands of his own. His bands like to take classic rock songs, change the lyrics, and then play them really loud so people can’t tell the difference.

He also likes the landscapes of his native Asturias, Spain… and its food and drinks. He says the cider there is fantastic, and as long as you don’t have too much you can still work the next day!
