Alan Dixon is a mathematician by training, with a BA in Mathematics at Carleton University and an MSc in Math at the Universidad de Costa Rica. He has been helping non-profits with their websites since 1997.

I started Blackfly Solutions in 2009 as a way of working with a couple of colleagues (Reema Tarzi and Rob Ellis) under a shared shingle (what we now call a brand). It has evolved into a combination of a managed hosting service and a "platform" for collaborating with other independent professional associates.

Karin is a biomechanist by training (she holds a Ph.D. from the University of Calgary). In 2001 Karin started Semper IT and has been using her computer programming skills towards web design and development for non-profits and very small businesses since. Karin always looks for solutions that engage her clients in their own projects and is very committed to non-profits: in her spare time she is an accredited volunteer for La Leche League Canada and an accredited community coach workshop facilitator for the local Orienteering club.

Since 1999 when she started hand-coding HTML, and the early 2000s and discovering CSS, Susanna has been building and maintaining websites. In 2007 she was introduced to the Drupal content management framework and has been using it ever since. Her specialty is Drupal theming.
