Cynthia Beuselinck
Web Project Manager of Trends Mobile and Web Solutions
Steeped in the Internet for much longer than she’d like to admit, Cynthia manages the projects and is the friendly front line for our customers. Her first web design firm was opened in 1995 making her a bit of an oddity on the team – most of them look at the web like they look at a toaster; it’s just always been there. Cynthia does remember life without it, and would rather not return. She taught web design for over a decade and has guided successful, award-winning web teams and projects over the years. A graduate from the SAIT Library and Information Technology program, she brings a unique and valuable set of information architecture and content organization skills to the table. In an industry that never stands still, Cynthia has the benefit of combining her experience and wisdom with the newest technologies while working together with the vibrant members of the Trends team (who are very fun to work with!). In her spare time, Cynthia loves the great outdoors and you’ll often find her exploring the nearby Rocky Mountains or the deserts and beaches of Mexico. Learning Spanish, dancing Cumbia, and trying to stay out of trouble also keep her busy when she isn’t adding photos to her Facebook page.
