Team Bios
Cynthia Kay:
Owner & President, Cynthia Kay, started up CK & CO after a run in broadcasting. Anyone who knows Cynthia would say she's a real wall-flower and keeps her thoughts to herself (NOT!). Her Greek cooking is to die for, and many think she looks like Stacy London from TLC's "What Not to Wear", always dressed from head to toe in black. We’ll let you be the judge, though!
Bryan Parris:
Our V.P. of Production has been around the globe. He was born in South Africa, then moved to Oklahoma and has planted his feet in West Michigan. He's always "feeling the beat" whether it's tapping his toes while editing, or singing at his desk - you could say he's got a musical side. He's a trendy "techy", bringing his iPhone wherever he goes, never getting bored ---but if he does, there's an app for that!
John Cuevas:
Senior Editor, John Cuevas, joined CK & CO to escape from all the sunshine and heat in Florida. He's a cat lover originally from Wisconsin, a self-proclaimed Cheese Head who can rattle off the batting averages of the 1982 Brewer's at a moments notice. Those sports stats have come in handy over the years – the work of this After Effects® guru were seen across the nation when he worked for ESPN!
Janelle LaLonde:
Our Project Manager/Producer has lived all across the Great Lakes state, working her way up the ladder in broadcasting as a reporter and producer and is excited to plant her feet in West Michigan for a while. She loves traveling and exploring foreign culture. She also enjoys baking, spending time with family and chasing around her feisty cat, Wally.
Jason Woods:
Our Producer and Editor, has an extensive background in broadcasting, both in production and promotions. Jason is a theme park fanatic, loves roller coasters and everything about the theme park industry. He even worked at Walt Disney World® as a bell hop on The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ (a great excuse to get a few extra rounds on the ride!). Another hobby is going to live concerts – he's been to around 200 shows over the past several years.
Steve Kohn:
Director of Photography, Steve Kohn, is our superhero in the field. Before CK & Co, he was a production specialist for Government TV. He likes Green Bay Packers football and is a U of M fan, which puts him at odds with CK! When there's free time, Steve likes to read comics and books about chess strategy.
