Nick Stringari
Managing Director
Fresh out of college, Nick took a job as an engineer with a Fortune 500 company bringing new technology to market. "Fantastic experience…….wouldn’t change it for the world!" he claims.
In 2015, he questioned everything he was doing and flipped it on its head. Now he's focused on building Stoic, a full service agency built for what works.
Oh…and he likes to read, invest, and he's addicted to this little game we call "business."

Gabrielle St. Pierre
Head Of Art
Gab is a stellar person. From roots in Quebec, she's found herself working on stellar brands and projects in the North American, Asian, and European markets.
She's got that super eye that most competitor's would gaze at in jealousy. Highly skilled in Art Direction, Design, and Film, she has what it takes to take your brand from 0 to 1.
She also has a great personality. She will bite back however, if she gets overworked. So don't push it, buckos.

Nick Little
Head Of Tech
Nick is a rock star. (That's what he told us to say.)
You will find him and his nerdy crew in the wee back corners of the office with the lights dim, working on Python code. Who knows, we all think they are trying to hack the government.
Founder of multiple successful tech companies, he's worked on projects for the Department of Defense to the US Air Force, and onward to several tech brands in the Denver/Boulder area.
"Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It's the courage to continue that counts."
Jordan Ching
Senior Filmmaker
Jordan is a self taught director, writer, and entrepreneur. She fell in love with the camera while living in Beijing and hasn't put it down since.
The camera has given her the opportunity to work with Sundance, Richard Branson, and Van Jones as well as traveling around the world. She believes in pushing boundaries and taking risks in order to achieve the impossible.
"In order to attain the impossible one must attempt the absurd." - Miguel de Cervantes
Spencer Stringari
Studio Specialist
Spencer has been in the entrepreneurship world since day one. At his previous venture he saw first hand the power of storytelling in working with brands like Hearts On Fire, Tacori, and A. Jaffe.
He also whistles Mozart and has been inducted into the Mozart Whistlers Hall of Fame in Antonville, Nebraska. He collects pictures of eyeballs from magazines and pastes them on public trash cans to scare away unnecessary crows. "What a public nuissance!" he often cries.
