Maddy Closs
Maddy is responsible for (masterfully) architecting and developing custom application projects here at Savas Labs, ranging from web-based applications to full-scale mobile consumer applications. When she isn’t helping clients bring ideas to life through code, you can find her volunteering with TEDxDurham, hanging out with her two dogs, doing yoga, and spending lots of time outdoors.

Taylor Tice
Taylor is responsible for managing our custom development projects from discovery to successful implementation (and he’s damn good at it!). With nearly a decade’s-worth of experience as a project manager, he’s seen it all and has a solution for just about any risk you might run into. When he’s not working, he enjoys spending time with his wife Abbey and their baby girl Millie, taking impromptu trips to the beach, playing golf, or cheering on his beloved Wahoos.

Marc Herschberger
Marc is responsible for spreading the good word about Savas Labs and our incredible team within it. Having spent a decade in the digital agency world, he knows what it takes to solve for the client and that’s why he’s loving it here at Savas. When he’s not introducing you all to Savas Labs, you’ll find Marc on the soccer pitch reliving his glory days, watching Liverpool FC dominate, or planning his next adventure with his wife Emily.
