Joe is our technical lead in defining, developing, integrating, and deploying all of our high-performing, scalable, and cloud-based, desktop and mobile applications. As our Principal Software Engineer, Joe listens to what our clients want and creates software to help solve their complex business problems.  Joe is tasked with overseeing all of our software development and technical projects and needs to push red technologies into new industry-leading technologies to always be at the top of our game. He takes a leadership/mentorship role over all other developers and engineers to make sure we always meet our high standards of excellent software development and technical needs for our clients.

Joe has four different computer and IT-based degrees, with over 20 years of experience in the technology field. His favorite type of project involves developing cloud-first microservice architecture and experimenting with blockchain technology. Some of us have no idea what that means, but his wide-ranging technology skill set makes him a real asset to Red Tech and our clients. Even in his spare time, you can find Joe tinkering with new software ideas. But when Joe does get away from his desk, he enjoys bowling, golf, and weight lifting, as well as spending time with his girlfriend, her daughters, and his two dogs.

Jesse supports Red Technologies and our clients by developing, deploying, and maintaining desktop and mobile web applications. With a background in technology, he has more than 15 years of experience in architecting integrated software solutions for small and large retail and service companies. Jesse works with our clients and project managers to establish online goals and creates websites based on individual needs.  

When he is not programming, Jesse loves spending time with his two teenage boys, playing pool, and watching movies. A DIY devotee, Jesse also loves tinkering with new projects he finds on Pinterest.

Building relationships is what Bjorna does best, but she’s expanding her skills by assisting with Web Development projects and has also been brought in to assist Red Tech with blogging and managing social media accounts. This mother of three is an excellent multi-tasker and is great with deadlines. When she isn’t busy managing projects, you can find her competing in a weekly women’s basketball league, working out and running, which she calls “training for life.” She’ll eat most anything (but hold the cilantro) and she loves reality television shows like The Amazing Race and Survivor. Maybe those shows take her back to her 20s when she backpacked through Europe, ran with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain, and spent a summer in Ireland.

Janine is our content writer, who enjoys using language to make technical jargon
sound engaging. She is creative, organized, and always has a planner or notebook on hand. Her diverse background in writing, marketing, and multi-tasking make her an excellent fit for our team. When Janine isn’t playing dress up or having a dance party with her 4-year- old twins, she enjoys practicing yoga, reading a new book, and being outdoors. Born and raised in MN, Janine married a Green Bay native, so Sundays in the fall are often a little tense. Janine and her family love to travel and hope to plan another adventure soon.

Tori is one of our digital marketing specialists, she enjoys getting to know new businesses and figuring out unique and creative ways to market their brand. She loves a humorous content feed (and creating it where its fits). She also helps clients with email blasts and blogging. Tori is a recent business and marketing graduate from The U of M- Crookston and has been in the marketing field since. You can usually catch Tori and her fiance outside enjoying the sun with their two dogs. If that isn’t the case, Tori is either at the lake, hanging with friends or her mom, grabbing coffee, or strolling the aisles of Target. One day you will catch her road tripping to Banff.. with the dogs of course.

Marea has been a graphic designer for more than 15 years (she won’t admit to how long, as a lady never reveals her age) and has extensive experience with print and digital design, photography and photo editing, video editing, copywriting, brand development, social media management and more.  She’s a big fan of typography and fonts, and is probably silently judging your font choice.

When she’s not designing, she’s hanging with her husband, 2 kids, and 3 cats, baking, biking, rocking out to live music, volunteering with her kids’ school as a PTO board member, or obsessing over baseball.

A background in marketing and sales, mixed with experience in the real estate industry, and a passion for photography makes Tracie the perfect fit for our well-rounded team. Her astute vision and keen eye for detail polish any project she works on.
