Kirsten Jahn Richardson
DMi Partners’ Director of Creative Services
Newly wed in October 2011
Accomplished Mentor to Wissahickon High School Robotics Team #341, “Miss Daisy”
My daily responsibilities are…
managing the flow of creative requests in and out of the department from both internal and external clients. And the fun stuff of course: exercising my creativity in designing websites and coding
I love my job because of…
the variety of work that comes across my plate. I never know quite what the next request will be, but it’s never boring! Plus, my team is awesome – we recently won three W3 design awards.
I’ve worked with DMi Partners for…
4 years this month!
The project I’ve completed at DMi Partners that I’m most proud of is…
Tastykake.com. The site turned out great! I loved working with their imagery, colors, and textures and I was really able to flex my muscles and code it exactly the way I wanted.
In my free time, I’m…
either coaching high school students in video production, editing, web design, and photography or serving as a board member to the Anthracite Railroads Historical Society. I also freelance on the side! Free time doesn’t really exist for me.
My favorite part of Robotics is…
the energy and camaraderie of my team. The students and coaches experience so many teachable moments throughout a competition season and by the end of it, we all feel like family.
A memorable part of my recent wedding was…
having my team’s robot drive the rings down the aisle and do a little “Mr. Roboto” dance towards the end of the evening. Yeah, that happened.
Something unique about me is…
I grew up in a log home with a real-life caboose in the backyard (on tracks and everything).
I’ll die happy if…
my husband and I have traveled a large portion of the world and captured some amazing photos in the process
