Stephanie Hunt

Partner, SEO, Web Development, Social Media

Steph is the slightly nerdy partner in marketelements, being particularly good at helping clients to improve their online marketing with SEO, PPC, SM, FB, OBM, OM, plus a whole heap of other nerdy acronyms.   Steph is a local business mentor with a history in the finance and training industries.  Underscoring all this is her love of technology.   She goes to very nerdy international conferences to keep up with what Google is doing so she can share her new-found knowledge with the Team and our clients.

In her spare time, when she’s not looking after her family, Steph plays squash, reads and paints (acrylics and mixed media).  She also has a fixation with buttons… see her pinterest.com boards!

Brian Thomas

Partner, Advertising, PR, Copywriting, Communications

Brian is a partner at marketelements and works on the marketing communications side of the house.  He’s lived in NZ for 12 years with his wife and young family and feels he’s getting the hang of it!  He loves putting end-to-end campaigns together for smaller businesses and making a positive impact on their bottom line.

When not glued to his monitor or his iPhone – Brian can be found skiing, hunting, camping or watching the Gruen Transfer and Dragons’ Den on his most treasured piece of domestic technology – MySky!

Kristin Birch

Design and Web Development

Kristin works in the design and web development teams.  She’s also in her 3^rd year of study of a Bachelor of Applied Media Arts (Visual Media) degree at the Southern Institute of Technology (Not too busy then!).  She’s just passionate about creating exciting websites and design, but also confesses to having a minor obsession with typography – text and fonts!

Invercargill born and bred, when not at work or SIT, Kristin can often be found in her studio covered in paint, or hanging off the side of a rock face.  Go Kristin!

Adele Cuddie

Search Optimisation and Copywriting

Adele has had a busy first year with marketelements, working in the Search Optimisation and creative writing teams.  She graduated from Otago University with a Bachelor of Commerce (Marketing Management) and a Bachelor of Consumer and Applied Science (Design Studies). Adele’s talents at marketelements include creative copywriting and crafting seriously good link building campaigns for great search optimistion.

Originally from Auckland and now living in Invercargill, Adele enjoys the Southland outdoors, chasing after her 2 very active boys and it turns out she’s pretty hooked on Pinterest too!

Suzanne Uiterwijk

Design and Web Devlopment

Suzanne grew up in Nelson and her family hails from The Netherlands.  She has tertiary qualifications in Computer Graphic Design, Web Development and Business Ownership.  She is in her second year with marketelements but already has a wide range of web and graphic design work under her belt.

Suzanne loves swimming and she adores Travel – in particular, visiting Europe to see her family.  In the meantime, she flats in Christchurch and is excited by the rebuild of the City, the ‘pop up’ shopping mall and other post-quake innovations yet to come.

Nathan O’Byrne

Technicial

We’ve long suspected that Nathan is not a real person at all – he’s actually a Superhero.  Whenever marketelements has a technical glitch or a piece of seriously tricky web work to do, he dons his “SuperTec” cape and swoops to the rescue!  Some say he has a 1 Million TB hard drive for a brain; others say he doesn’t drink or eat – but downloads everything he needs!  We just say “Thanks SuperTec… You’re a Hero!”
