Personal Passions

In her free time, Mel loves to explore beaches, new restaurants, cheer on her favorite college sports teams, take advantage of random Groupon opportunities, and empower underrepresented communities. In fact, it was her love of generosity that drew her to Wheelhouse. Nelson Mandela’s quote ‘Deep down in every human heart there is mercy and generosity’ resonates strongly with Mel so the opportunity to live her values in her personal AND professional lives was one she could simply not pass up.

Meet the rest of our team

Scott is our Director of Digital Strategy. He is a born and raised Seattleite with an all-too-predictable love of writing, books, films, coffee, and music. He loves his wife and son, and has quite the selection of wool socks.

Joe is drawn to digital marketing out of a deep and broad interest in effective communication. As a Digital Services Manager, Joe collaborates closely with team members and clients to execute on digital strategy initiatives.

Victor brings HR expertise, a strong sense of empathy, an emphasis on relationship building, and a passion for diversity, equity and inclusion to his role of Director of HR and Operations.

Aaron is CEO & Founder, and a broadly accomplished digital marketing professional. He is responsible for vision, strategy and culture. He’s still happily married to that New Zealander he met in Malaysia and they now have two wonderful daughters.

Liz is the Director of Client Experience at Wheelhouse DMG, coordinating the workflows between the Digital Strategy, Analytics, and Engineering practices, so that things run smoothly. When she’s not in the office, she’s probably training for another marathon or paddle-boarding with her dog.

Erika is a Client Experience Manager. A NW native, she loves to ski, read, and run in between chauffeuring her three kids (and the family dog) to more activities than she cares to think about. She also loves Prosecco and Oreos, but not together.

Trenton loves anything thrill-seeking, nerdy, or related to data analytics. He also enjoys being a Full-Stack Digital Marketer and helping clients achieve and measure business initiatives.
