Sean Shields
Publisher sean@metbride.com |
|
He has never worked a day in his life. Sean mostly gets by on his 20-year-old modeling photo and charming personality. He is the kind of guy you really can't be mad at. So, if you are unhappy with any of our services, please feel free to contact him--that is, if you can catch him at any of his other three businesses.

Megan Rallis
Creative Director meg@metbride.com |
|
If it involves creativity, you can bet Meg has her hand in it. Whether it is the magazine, bridal expo, website, or some crazy robot sculpture for her desk, Megan is right in the middle of it. If you are bored with your latest advertising campaign, need some fresh creative ideas, or just want to know how to make a paper mache pinata, get a hold of her, and she'll blow your mind! Simply put, Meg is as awesome as a peanut butter cupcake (which also happens to be her favorite!). Oh, and Meg hates orphan pens (she is slightly obsessed with keeping her pens in colored sets). So, don't mess with them...seriously.

Michaela Mullen
Office Administrator mmullen@metbride.com |
|
We are not sure how we managed to get so lucky, but we did. Michaela has made the transition from intern to employee... but go easy on her (for now). Although, with her triple major from Drury University in Arts Administration, Design Arts and Fine Arts... she will soon be teaching us a thing or two.

Jessica Bertholdi
Operations Manager jessica@metbride.com |
|
Don't hate her because she is beautiful... or because she calls you to collect money if your bill is late. After all, she is just doing what she was hired to do [look beautiful]. Jessica is the one that keeps our financial life in order. Without her, we would fall apart. She keeps track of all things paperwork.

DoniQua Colbert-Beaugard
|

You won't want to miss meeting this lady. She is by far the most fun person to be around we have ever met. In fact, we didn't even let her get all the way home after her interview before offering her the job! But, besides all that, she knows the ins and outs of the advertising and print media world. She is our office-merchant liaison--the one that will sit down with you and help you create a marketing plan for your business as well as figure out how to give you the best deal possible.

Nick Dodge
Staff Photographer nick@metbride.com |

Meet Nick. No, he is not the paparazzi. Although you may find him roaming about your business taking pictures, he is harmless. Nick has apprenticed under Dawn for years, and now we have recruited him to help you showcase your business. Nick is responsible for various imagery you may find in the magazine and online. Nick's hobbies include long walks on the beach, 80s music, and surfing the internet in search of the perfect tie to add to his collection.

Baby G
V.P. of Office Destruction Baby G is sometimes better known as G-Zilla. |
|
As a small business ourselves, we enjoy sharing our office with Jessica's toddler, Baby G. We will warn you, however, that the phone is his newest favorite office toy...so many buttons! So, it is possible that you will receive a random phone call from our office mascot G-Zilla [although he usually calls China].

Monet
Public Relations |
|
He has no email, silly. He is blind. Oh... and he is a dog. Monet spends his day lounging about, I mean, patrolling the office and warning us of intruders. So, if you hear a dog barking when you call the office, just remember to give a shout out to Mr. Monet.
