Roxy Snyder

Account Executive

Roxy is a sales rock star! All she does is sell, sell, sell. The good thing about all of this is that she gets results, and her clients love her. Roxy has been selling most of her life. At age ten, she sold her brother’s favorite skateboard to a friend for her first sale. Then she had to figure out how to tell her brother . . . that didn’t go so well. Roxy started her career off by selling fitness memberships, which led to her passion for eating clean and staying fit. Roxy prides herself on her endurance when it comes to Netflix marathons and gaming with her son on Xbox. Ask her about her passion for boating; she’s got some crazy stories.

Mark Hobson

Lead Developer

Mark’s love for technology started at a young age. He has a wealth of problem-solving experience and is great at pulling together all the little details to keep everything running smoothly at any stage of a project. His experience, thoroughness, and attention to detail ensure that projects are always completed to the highest standards with minimum hassle. When he’s not writing code, Mark can be found driving his “Back to the Future” Delorean, floating in his boat in the Pacific Ocean, or hiking with the Boy Scouts. You could describe Mark as a retired band member, video game fiend, and zombie connoisseur.

Jill Heaps

Customer Service Manager & Certifications

Jill is loved by our customers, assisting them with their every need through the sales process. Jill sees many parallels between her responsibilities at eSpeakers and her two passions–running and eating healthy. All three rely on being passionate and positive and finding answers to problems. When she’s not obsessing over how to help potential customers see the benefits of eSpeakers, you can find Jill lacing her shoes up for a run, supporting her kids in their activities, or baking homemade bread. Ask her about her latest adventure, where she and her husband ran the Grand Canyon from rim to rim!

Ben Alyk

Customer Service/Product Testing

Ben’s role is to help customers resolve problems, and he also helps out on the profile creation team. Ben loves to listen to all types of music, from movie soundtracks to dubstep. He loves photography and filmmaking with a passion and hopes to write and produce his own full-length movie someday. He’s also an aspiring novelist and an intermediate cellist. When he’s not working or on set, you can find Ben in his “Man Cave,” playing either his latest single-player video game obsession or playing with his friends online.
