Douglas Ames is the Owner and Managing Director of Webfx. We call him “Doug-E-Slaughter” after his tyrannical behavior when deadlines aren’t met.

Douglas has always been involved in managing technology, starting with his career in the telecommunications industry in 1996 running a Call-Back service. He then entered the world of Internet media, with the launch and eventual sale of the HOMEVIEW group of websites.

As a graduate of St. Anthony’s College in Diego Martin, Trinidad, he learnt that hard work and dedication pays off. He likes running, liming, reading (The Economist is his favourite magazine) and eating Sushi!

Richelle Persad is the Client Services Manager at Webfx.She has a Bachelors degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management from Florida International University and her MBA in Marketing from Florida Atlantic University. Richelle spent some time working in traditional advertising, but her thirst for interactive marketing brought her to Webfx.

Richelle’s dedicated years of service to Webfx and her pleasant nature has helped her to maintain a great relationship with her clients, but her timeliness and efficiency makes it easy. Richelle loves working out, even after Carnival…who does that? She goes to the gym at the wee hours of the morning when her colleagues are either still asleep or in transit to work. And when the going gets tough and she needs to wind down, a glass of Merlot does the trick…at any time of the day for that matter.

Amanda Fernandes is an Account Manager at WebFx. She was born and raised in south Trinidad. She pursued an undergraduate degree in Child, Youth and Family Studies at the University of Guelph, Canada and has a Masters of Education (Health Promotion) from the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine.

Amanda has a wealth of experience in curriculum development and programme facilitation, however having dabbled quite a bit in social media management and blogging, she was instantly drawn to the world of digital media.

Her passion for interacting with people and building relationships coupled with her interest in digital media led her to WebFx.

Amanda loves to spend her free time with her favourite person, her baby James J as well as her family and friends. She also enjoys working out, cooking and a good glass of wine or prosecco.

He has previously owned his own apparel brand and worked with internationally acclaimed musicians such as Major Lazer, Machel Montano, Kes, Nadia Batson etc.

He’s light-hearted, extroverted and easily amused as he sees the humor in most things (sometimes even laughing at the most inappropriate moments).

Shanice Chevalier is a Customer Experience Representative at Webfx. She attended Miami University where she completed her BSc. in Kinesiology and Health with a minor in Nutrition. She is in love with everything sports and health related and it is her dream to one day work with our national athletes and be a part of our Olympic team delegation as it is the perfect way to blend her love for sports, working with athletes and traveling the world.

In her free time Shanice loves running and weight training, (kind of a fitness fanatic). She also has a passion for the anything and everything involving the outdoors. She thinks growing up in Trinidad and Tobago has been the perfect backdrop for fostering her appreciation for nature, the ocean and of course, liming.

Niala Jshvonne Seetahal is an Account Executive at Webfx. She attained her BSc in Psychology at the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine.

Niala’s hobbies include art, discovering new music, getting angry while playing video games, reading poetry, hanging with friends, writing, outdoor activities and sleeping at any given point. Niala does not enjoy writing personal biographies and she is not a fan of people who believe that Claxton Bay is south of Trinidad.

Israel Ramjohn is a Multimedia Designer at WebFX. In his pre-school days he was playing with plasticine. In secondary school it was with paint brushes and clay. At the tertiary level and in the professional world now, he plays with the camera and the mouse. Israel has always been a visual artist and he sees any creative challenge as a potentially fun venture!

He thinks it’s a brilliant way to cheat life by getting paid to do something you actually really love. He loves all aspects of filmmaking and writing scripts (but that hasn’t turned a profit just yet).

On things that he loves, food comes in a close second. Israel has been cooking up a storm in the family business since he could reach the countertop and eating as much as he could fit in his big mouth. Dragon Boat Racing is the next love and he has been paddling since 2008, representing T&T at two IDBF World Championships and still training every weekend so all the extra calories balance out. Lastly, he loves to smile, because joy multiplies when it is shared.

Jacques Pierre is a Web Developer at Webfx. He achieved a Bsc in Computer Science at the University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida. Programming was always a passion of his and he struck an interest in Web Development one day by researching how to learn web development. Learning something new is one of his hobbies as he is always open to gaining knowledge.

During his spare time, he loves to watch movies, play video games (mostly Fortnite and Fifa) and hangout with his friends. He loves to stay at home and laze around during the weekends, as he enjoys doing nothing. He is sometimes sarcastic and sees the humor in everyday life (even in serious circumstances sometimes), which he thinks can help defuse the situation.

She believes that one should “never let success go to your head and never let failure go to your heart”. Volunteering, animals and her dogs are very close to her heart.

*Nikita made sure she corrected an improper use of a capital letter E  in this bio profile.
