Steve Taylor

SENIOR DEVELOPER

When Steve Taylor first started coding, flip phones were a status symbol and Netscape Navigator ruled the Internet. From front end to back end, Silicon Valley to the Island of Maui, Steve brings 17 years of design and development experience to Project6. When he's not wrangling bytes into some semblance of order, you'll find him bashing away on a beat up banjo or hiking through the Bay Area hills with his wife and kids.

She has been indispensable to Project6 since 2013, working with clients including the California HealthCare Foundation (CHCF), the John Muir Health Foundation, the University of California at Berkeley, and Stanford University.

Johannes Schmidt

DEVELOPER

As a senior Project6 web developer, Johannes plans and implements robust back and front-end development solutions. That’s a fancy way of saying he builds a rock-solid website. He’s also licensed to sail a 38-foot Catalina. So look out.

Andrew Cooper

PROJECT MANAGER

Before transitioning into project management in 2015, Andrew spent the first ten years of his career working as a designer, photographer, and strategist for businesses in and around Chicago, IL and Seattle, WA. When not in the office, you’ll find him biking around town, hiking in the nearby Cascades, or relaxing on Vashon Island with his family.

Maddie

SECURITY

Maddy brings eternal puppydom to the Project6 office. Her responsibilities include chewing bones, napping, closely investigating potted plants, derailing productivity and generally being ridiculously cute.
