Chris PrendergastPartner & Chief Operations Officer
Chris studied computer graphics technology at Purdue University, completing his senior project on sports data visualization. He then went on to complete an MBA specializing in strategy and marketing, before returning to Sioux Falls to work as a freelance web designer, developer, and marketer.

We all respond to challenges differently. Chris meets them head on, pursuing the undiscovered clues hidden in the data. He turns "We have a problem" into a new challenge, a new opportunity to improve. And, as one of a handful of Certified Web Analysts in the country, he is well-prepared to respond to these digital obstacles. Chris's superpowers are:
