Inspired by the success of his father and grandfather, our fearless leader, Nick Footer, was born with a fiery, insatiable drive to do one thing and one thing only: become a Business Badass. Ever since the ripe old age of 8, Nick Footer aspired to build his own company from scratch and by god did he do it. Before he could get his hands on the wheel of what would soon become one of Portland, Oregon’s up and coming digital marketing agencies, he had to face his biggest challenge yet: b u s i n e s s s c h o o l.

A powerhouse in the business world, the man, the myth, the legend Nick Footer obtained not one, not six, but TWO whole business degrees: a BA and an MBA, with focuses in Digital Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Business Strategy, and Bein’ a Heckin’ Boss.

Like to a siren in the Aegean Sea, Nick was drawn to the edge of the world… of marketing… search engine marketing to be exact. The year is 2010, and our dear future captain climbed aboard Anvil Media and worked his way up to a business development role. Years went by and Nick worked day and night to become a master of search marketing. Once he became the master, he split off to form his own company: Intuitive Digital.

Nick is passionate about many things—mainly the Red Sox and bad jokes—but mostly giving back to his clients, providing high-quality services, and working with amazing teams.

One day, many years ago, the OG Dan met Nick in a dark alley and blackmailed him until he gave him a job. They’ve been friends ever since. What an absolute Madman.

A native of Portland with a BA in Political Science from the University of Oregon (go DUCKS) and an MBA in Finance from Concordia University, this man is exactly the kind of person ID needed to run our office like a rocketship aimed at success. Years later, he’s still here (he must’ve liked it or something) and even though he doesn’t know what the heck an SEO is or how many PPCs can fit in a breadbox, man this guy is an ace in the hole when it comes to administration, finance, and HR.

When he’s not playing zookeeper, he loves taking long walks with his wife and adopted pup from the Oregon Humane Society. Dan is very passionate about traveling and boy if you’re goofing off, he will talk to you about airline rewards until you start working again. He’s been to all habitable continents but hopes to make it to Antarctica one day.

Anish is a digital marketing veteran. With years of experience in creating and managing digital content, Anish is our go-to for building relationships with our clients and producing top quality work.

A graduate of Portland State University, Anish holds a degree in Business and has spent the majority of her career servicing small businesses. Before joining Intuitive Digital, Anish spent almost six years owning her own web and graphic design firm.

A creator by nature, Anish is our VP of Partner Services. She’s our resident “Cool Office Mom”, whether you need a sounding board for new ideas, or someone to remind you to recycle, she’s a friend and mentor to all in our office.

When Anish isn’t creating new websites, implementing new strategies or cultivating happiness, you can find her at the rally races with her husband, loving on her pup Elsa Bean, or traveling to a Ducks game.

PS – She really is as great as she sounds.

Queen of mopeds and woodworking, Lynn wasn’t always an SEO master. Believe it or not, she used to be a scientist until one day she had an epiphany that the laboratory just isn’t for her. As a hybrid analytical creative, she searched far and wide for an effective way to have her cake and eat it too. When there, on the horizon, was the perfect niche of both: digital marketing.

At Intuitive, Lynn leads the SEO team (and our lone ranger content writer) with a blanket skirt and rockin’ organizational skills. Her job allows her to do everything that she loves—helping others create and grow their place on the web.

When not leading her team of Mighty Marketing Misfits, Lynn is toiling over her own projects at home. Whether it’s a 1980s moped, a handmade notebook, or a wooden masterpiece, she’s ready to tackle it all. She also loves going on very slow walks with her best bud Huckleberry the basset hound. We have no idea how she manages to fit it all in but clearly she’s smashing it.

For years, Piper was totally OK with just being a musician until they realized that “tickling the keyboard” was a lot like “tickling the ivories” (we’ll trust them on this one). They’ve since taken a fancy to making apps and websites for any and all. 5 years later, they find the most joy in working with small businesses to help turn their vision into a beautiful and functional online reality.

Piper obviously came to Intuitive to work with the coolest, nicest people around. They haven’t run away, yet, which is a huge plus but only time will tell.

They’re an honest to goodness miracle worker when it comes to internet flapdoodle. When they’re not pulling websites out of literal thin air, they enjoy skipping town with their partner or exploring the wilderness with their lively (read: domineering) pup, Sprout. They can whistle with the best of ‘em, but they cannot snap. Don’t try to teach them. Seriously.

In Memory of Max Hoffman

Elsa Bean is our professional office dog; arguably the most important position in the company (Nick, byeeeee). She loves long walks around the building as long as it’s not too cold or too wet… or too cloudy—she’s from California after all. She may love a good garbage sniff here and a belly rub there, but she’s definitely a “nap directly behind your chair so you can’t escape” kinda gal. Let’s be real, she’s basically a cat. Elsa hates long meetings (honestly who doesn’t), but as a working dog, she does have business cards just in case a partner needs to reach her. When mom steps out for a moment, Elsa stares longingly out of the window… waiting… wondering. She wonders of many things, but most importantly she wants to know if that food is up for grabs. Me, too, Elsa… me, too…

Squiggles is the self-proclaimed queen of the office. Some say she’s a palm tree. Others say she’s a grass. She is neither. She spends most of her day glaring at our CEO through her metaphysical eyes as he ignores her silent commands. “You must bow before your superior and omniscient being—I am SQUIGGLES,” she screams without falter. She watches as we mere mortals toil away over our inconsequential work—she scoffs at the struggles of the human condition. “I am eternal. Our time will come.” She will bear the apple that poisons man once again… as soon as she figures out how to walk.
