Happy three-year Ampleversary, Jake! You are an all-around fantastic human who is always coming in with the best book & music recs — & also dad to one of the cutest kids alive. We’re thankful for you, Jake! 🪇👏

🪕A hobby I’ve picked up (or want to pick up) recently is Banjo. The “claw-hammer” style.

🕊️The last book I read (and loved) was “Shadow & Claw: The First Half of ‘The Book of the New Sun’” by Gene Wolfe

🔋The biggest tech breakthrough I hope happens in the next 10 years is Battery tech. I want my phone to stay charged for a week.

🧺A book that changed the way I think is “Roadside Picnic by Arkady Strugatsky”

Happy third Ampleversary, Josh! Low-key chef, cool dad, and beloved teammate — get your yearly Josh update below. We’re so grateful for you, Josh! 🙌

🚙The best purchase I’ve made recently is a new car, a 2024 Hyuandai Tuscon. It’s the first new generation car I’ve ever owned. So much better to haul my son around in.

🤖A piece of tech from a movie or show that I wish were real is J.A.R.V.I.S. from Iron Man. I just want to talk to a machine & have it intelligently do things for my house or even my job. That would be sick.

💥The song that always makes me dance is Bang! By AJR

🧐My ideal superpower would be telepathy, to see what people are really thinking about.

Happy first Ampleversary, Kelly! 🎉🍾 Intrepid Client Services Manager and wrangler of internal teams, Kelly has been an incredible asset to Ample and all of our clients since day one! We’re so grateful for you Kelly. Get to know her a bit below!

🏈My favorite sports team would be winning more if only they invested in their defense. But I’m still feeling confident in them this upcoming season and I see a Super Bowl on the horizon 😎

🛌If I could go back and tell my younger self something, it would be to never refuse a nap. I wish we understood how good we have it as kids and cherish that time more!

📺The best film/tv show I’ve seen recently and want to recommend is Paradise on Hulu. It’s anxiety inducing but apparently I love to cause myself stress 🤪

🧀If I were a food, I would be Kraft Mac & Cheese. When I’m on my deathbed, please serve me this and only this
