The Agloco Staff

So I've been thinking how can I add more valuable resources to my blog and how can I better show people the faces behind agloco so that we can begin to realize that this is a real company and so we can all feel much better knowing the people behind to scenes.

Well I've came up with this here idea and that is to feature each staff member of agloco. I'll be digging up some information on each one of them in the weeks to come I'm going to find out what background they have, who they used to work for and see if they have any blogs or websites of their own.

But for now I'll just give everyone a bit of a preview of each staff member of agloco and a brief description of what they do at the company, so here they are based upon the description from Agloco.
