Bio
Jon Koehmstedt
It was amazing to watch Anne juggle so many moving pieces in a production. She could bring together models, locations, producers, photographers, props, and assistants to produce content for a dozens of brands in a couple hours while juggling a steady pre-orchestrated schedule of each shot. Much of the inspiration for the software was attempting to model the way that Anne's mind worked in being able to coordinate all these moving pieces. Naturally, she played an integral piece in the inspiration of building the product and creating the feature roadmap while collaborating with the engineers during its development. Anne has a certain passion and fire that drives her to perform and do better work. She's able to see the macro and challenge the minute to drive change towards a grander vision. And, most importantly, Anne has empathy and a real love for the industry and the professionals it's comprised of. When making feature decisions, Anne would not only consider the incremental product benefit, but also how much it empowered the studios and photographers and the various other collaborators to be able to have more freedom, regular deal-flow, and improve their quality of life. That perspective was vital.
