Ben - Multimedia developer
Ben hails from London England, at 18 he set out to Banff, Alberta spending the season as a ski instructor, before traveling North to the Arctic Circle, to explore the wonders of Alaska and the Yukon.
Needless to say he fell in love with the beautiful landscapes, before begrudgingly returning to England to “get a degree out the way.”
Attaining a 1st class in Multimedia and digital systems winning an award from the British computer science society in the process, Ben decided that living in England, with the occasional visit to the Alps just wasn’t going to fulfill his mountain needs, and made haste for Alaska to film a documentary on ‘Arctic man’.
After spending a year working in Lewes, as multimedia programmer for AI Bureau, Ben left once again for Canada to spend the season working as the in house multimedia developer for Northern Escape Heli-skiing, the fourth Largest Heli-ski company in the world.

Flo - Web Designer
Flo moved to England in 2003 to study the same degree as Ben at the University of Sussex in Brighton. They worked on various multimedia projects together, including the making of the advert “Hard” and the production of a live show which they were both rewarded for with 1st class marks.
After the completion of his degree at Sussex, Flo decided to carry on his studies and went on to complete a Masters in Multimedia Design at the Université Laval in Québec, Canada. He worked on an interactive project involving the Museum of Civilisation of Québec which he was honoured with by a high distinction. His Masters dissertation looked at the harmonisation of multimedia interfaces from a user-centered perspective, involving usability and high-level design patterns.
After graduating, he decided to come back to England for work experience and was employed by a Multilingual Web Marketing Agency based at the Sussex Innovation Centre.
He now specialises in creating standards-compliant and usable web interfaces for DEXthis clients, which are optimised for the web marketing and advertising needs of 2008.
