So after studying Fine Arts in Canada and Graphic Design in Bogotá, Cat worked both in Colombia and Miami in graphic design and advertising. Her longing to design the days away in a less officey environment led her to join forces with the über talents of Vida [both of whom make lasagna like its nobody’s business] and inkberries was born in 2008.

Grey comes to inkberries with over 10 years of web design and development experience. She holds a BA from Vanderbilt University and a Master’s from Emory University. In web development, Grey found a way to express her love of colour and design. Plus, it is a more meaningful outlet for her problem solving skills than playing Tetris. She has been on the cutting edge of technology since her days in elementary school where she trained to play Atari with her feet, something she still enjoys doing, in hopes of being on the ABC show "That's Incredible".
