If you could go on a journey anywhere, where would you go?: I absolutely LOVE to travel!  I would have said I would love to go to Australia and New Zealand but I did just recently go there!  Honestly, I have found that every place you go there is something special and unique to see if you open your eyes to look around and appreciate where you are!  I especially love being outdoors and experiencing God's beautiful creation!!

Some other favorites are Psalm 143:8-10, Proverbs 3:5-6, Colossians 3 (specifically 3:17, 23-24), 2 Corinthians 12:9, Jeremiah 29:11, Hebrews 10:19-25, Lamentations 3:22-24, Matthew 5:41, Ephesians 2:8-10, John 15:7-17 Ok.. I could keep going!  The Word is RICH, alive, and active!

What do you enjoy about your job?: The People!  I love getting to know each one of my team members and my clients.  I love being able to show love and to use my gifts to help others.  Each person is so unique, so every project is also very unique.  I love being able to help people on their own, personal and business, journey!!

ELISE FINGER

Project Management, Business Operations and Systems Implementation

Something unique: I am a Guinness World Record holder of 22 years for the longest musical march (52.4 miles). Yes, that's nearly two marathons of walking and playing an instrument non-stop for nearly 20 hours. We (our high school band) still hold the record.

If you could go on a journey anywhere, where would you go?: I'd love to visit each continent in my lifetime (minus Antarctica).

Favorite Quotes, Saying, or Bible verse: One of my all-time favorite Bible chapters is Psalm 34, but specifically verses 4-8 (NLT), "I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles. For the angel of the Lord is a guard; he surrounds and defends all who fear him. Taste and see that the Lord is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!"

What do you enjoy about your job?: While I've only been working with Journey Websites since the end of January, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with this team. We have fun and send lots of emojis or bitmojis, which makes my heart happy. Angela and her team care about me, and what's going on in my life. We're all in this together.

SHUBHAM BABEL

WordPress Developer

Something unique: My motivation is my family and I want to give them the best of the world. I spend less on myself and that's how I have been since childhood. 

If you could go on a journey anywhere, where would you go?: I'd take a road trip to the countries of Scandinavia - Iceland, Norway, Finland - and explore these beautiful places at a slow, comfortable pace.

Favorite Quotes, Saying, or Bible verse: "Live and let others live. Harm no one. Each and every creature wants to live and it makes me inhumane if I exploit them."

What do you enjoy about your job?: The friendly environment - it feels like home when working on projects. I especially enjoy Angela's nature, which makes me feel as if I've already known her for many years. I also enjoy working because I get a chance to challenge myself with a variety of client requirements. That's fun and growth! 🙂

Favorite Quotes, Saying, or Bible verse: "Don't worry about anything, instead, pray about everything." -Phillipians 4:6-7

What do you enjoy about your job?: I love the flexibility to work from home and create my work schedule. I also love the weekly meetings and guidance Angela provides.

JADEN DRURY

Web Developer

Something unique: I have a penpal that I keep regular correspondence with. Although right now we've moved to emailing due to sudden changes from the pandemic, we generally take time to decorate the letter and envelopes that we send to each other. I personally have a collection of wax seals that I often place on my envelopes.

If you could go on a journey anywhere, where would you go?: I would go to the Redwood State Parks in California to see the redwood forest.

Favorite Quotes, Saying, or Bible verse: "Don’t ever let someone convince you that cooking a meal for your kids— or anyone else for that matter— is one more thing to check off the to-do list. Every time you feed someone, you’re offering love, security, comfort, therapy, and memories shrouded in happiness and warmth. It’s no small thing." ~ Bon Appétit Editors Jenny Rosenstratch and Andy Ward

What do you enjoy about your job?: I enjoy getting to work with smaller businesses. For each of them, their website can be a huge step forward for their businesses, as well as a very personally meaningful step.
