Our Guys

Before founding Texodus Media, senior software developer Andrew Stein spent eight months serving as an on-site consultant in support of Hearst Corporation's soon-to-be-released Digital Paper content delivery device, designing and implementing a service-oriented data processing system by way of .NET 3.5 technologies, including C#, LINQ, WCF, WPF, ASP.NET MVC Framework, ADO Entity Framework, SQL Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008. Previously, he served as a software engineer for the Austin-based online advertising firm Datran Media, where he participated in performance and quality testing, bug fixing, new feature design implementation, optimization and general development of several large (250k + lines) enterprise class database driven Java web applications, targeting in-house Windows and Debian Linux systems, deploying against Tomcat or Glassfish, MySQL (4.x & 5.x) or SQL Server 2005, among other things. He is proficient in Java, .net, SQL, Markup, and two dozen other languages and variants thereof.

Senior copywriter Barrett Brown has worked for several advertising and marketing agencies including Sullivan Perkins as well as on a direct basis for his own clients, which have included everything from large media outlets like America Online and Fox Business Channel to smaller real estate, tech, energy, and retail firms. His other freelance work has appeared in dozens of publications including National Lampoon, The Onion, and McSweeney's, as well as plenty of lesser-known trade and industry pubs, city and regional magazines, alternative weeklies, and public policy journals. His first book, Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny, was released in March of 2007 to praise from former Rolling Stone editor Matt Taibbi, Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz, Air America Radio's Cenk Uygur, and Skeptic, among other sources.

When necessary, Texodus Media also incorporates the services of several computer graphics designers with experience in corporate website development and other media.

Our Deal

Texodus Media is a Brooklyn-based production company specializing in two areas: online marketing with an emphasis on web development and high-concept copywriting, and cutting-edge enterprise applications built from scratch and attuned to the particular needs of the client. We also handle a diverse array of other projects related to writing and software engineering in general. If it involves code, words, or graphics, we'll probably do it, assuming that it also involves money.

Because we're a small firm, and because our principals have worked with such major institutions as Hearst Corporation, America Online, National Lampoon, Fox Business Channel, Datran Media, and The Onion, every project we agree to take on is produced with an unusually high level of attention and expertise.
