Candice Norhadian
She keeps the boat afloat and makes sure all things run smoothly. She’s in charge of all the admin and finance related aspects of the hub and designed, built, and maintains this website. If you want to get her a gift, avoid chocolates, sparkling beverages, and alcohol. Go for skittles (crazy sour for extra points) or stroopwafels.
