Our Team
We're an independent agency that has been growing and evolving since our start 13 years ago. We believe that as a company, we are made better by the sum of our parts; our team members are intelligent, passionate and a little bit quirky. While larger companies often have teams so immense that you rarely talk to more than one or two people, at Muse our whole team is at your disposal. We think it’s important that you have the ability to speak with the very people working on your project and encourage direct communication to ensure that nothing is lost in translation during the creation of your vision. So check out our bios and get to know Team Muse: we love what we do and can’t wait to share our enthusiasm with you.

Mihai Ghita
Coming from an education in mechanical engineering, Mihai’s been living and breathing building things online for the majority of his life. With a passion for both back- and front-end development, Mihai loves using code to craft experiences on the web. He is the master at delivering the impossible; from a custom Drupal module or WordPress plugin, to programming the perfect API integration, he can do it all. Mihai may seem all business, but indulging in a scoop or two from his favorite Gelato shop always puts a smile on his face.

Lucy
Lucy is the Muse of MUSE. Greeter of all who enter the office, Lucy enjoys basking in the fluorescent light of her tropical aquarium, (quite literally) jumping at new opportunities, and always going after any food that has been sprinkled into her home. Never afraid to say hello, Lucy is always around to brighten our team’s day.
