Michael Lamarti
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Michael is the visionary who leads our team at Jola Interactive. He listens, asks the right questions, then draws on his creative skills and extensive knowledge of the home accents and real estate industries to develop an elegant and effective solution for each client. Michael’s success in intuitively translating clients’ desires into tangible and powerful marketing strategies is his gift. Within the industry, Michael has a well earned reputation as someone who provides ‘Madison Avenue’ creative services for companies without an unlimited budget. While he’s not exploring new online and traditional means of reaching customers, Michael loves spending as much time as possible with his children in Germany. He is also known to bring his dog to work on many a happy occasion.
Anthony Galante
SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT
In addition to having a special talent for new business development, Anthony is a wizard at developing innovative strategies for clients who want to position themselves as leaders within their industry. To do this, he draws upon his background as top “rainmaker” at an agency that supported market leaders in the home decor, lighting and luxury categories. Not one to rest on his laurels, Anthony served on the board of the Accessory Resource Team (ART) receiving its prestigious President’s Award. His customer service is second to none, and we are quite fortunate to have him at Jola Interactive.
Jordino De Los Santos
CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Jordino, an avid collector of pottery, furniture, and sci-fi entertainment memorabilia brings much to the creative process at Jola Interactive. While his background is in architecture and design, Jordino has worked in the advertising industry for more than 15 years. His brand experience is as diverse as it is impressive: from Steve Madden to Van Cleef & Arpels, Jordino has been able to translate clients’ strengths into evocotive marketing materials. We’re not the only ones to recognize his numerous talents; one of Jordino’s catalog designs recently won the prestigious GDA (Graphic Design America) award.
Jennifer Lee
SENIOR INTERACTIVE PROJECT MANAGER
Jenn is a take charge woman from Malaysia, fluent in four languages and an invaluable part of our team. Her passion for education led her to business school in the US where she obtained a degree in Information Technology. A voracious learner, Jenn now counts translating the business process into technical specifications, business requirements analysis, application engineering, technical resource and customer expectation management among her specialties. We are fortunate to have her managing our development team in India.
Christopher Langlois
SENIOR PRODUCTION MANAGER
It’s an interesting coincidence that Chris Langlois currently spends his weekends rebuilding, refurbishing and reconfiguring his family’s cottage in upstate New York… As head of production for Jola Interactive, Chris spends his weekdays drafting blueprints for all of our print work. After our creative team and the client develop a strong concept for the client’s marketing tools, we confidently turn to Chris. He creates the framework to follow, deciding what should be placed where for maximum effect, and prepares the project to evolve from an exciting idea to polished marketing collateral.Chris’s ability to understand the client’s objectives, and to provide a clear outline to achieve those objectives also extends to his work on websites. There he leverages 10+ years of production expertise to ensure Jola Interactive’s deliverables far exceed our clients’ expectations. Pull my finger!
Alex Leshansky
PROJECT MANAGER
Alex lends his assistance and diverse talents on the creative team in production. He’s an amusing guy with just the right combination of creative angst, talent, and charm. On his “off” time, he’s either showing off his skills playing basketball or painting his next masterpiece.
Bailey
WATCH DOG
A team player. While not having been here very long, Bailey has taken to her position like a dog to a bone. Her input and her doggedness at sniffing out every detail are invaluable. We are sure she will be sharing her insight for years to come. I know what you’re thinking; with all that attention, she must have a really ruff life.
