Our Work
We’re as proud of our projects as an external team as we are of our in-house roots. Here’s a sample of our work, from new websites to branding to marketing campaigns.






About Us
You know us. Because we’re like you (just with more time).
Everyone on the Expand team has 10+ years of experience at Boston-area startups. That’s how we provide the alignment and collaboration you expect from an internal team. With the flexibility and new perspectives of an external team. And without the endless cycles or outside egos.

Nelson
Co-Founder
Nelson has more than 15 years of experience building brands in the Boston area at start-ups like Care.com, Lycos, and Upromise.
And now she uses that in-house experience to help your brand too. From designing logos to leading website rebrands, Nelson’s your gal for big picture thinking that gets big results.

Tracy
Co-Founder
Tracy has a long history of creating looks that win over customers. Desktop and mobile design at Care.com. User experience at Continuum Managed Services, LLC. And yes, the best hot fudge sundaes at Dairy Queen.
The cherry on top? Tracy worked in-house for 12 years, so she loves working cross-functionally with marketing and tech teams.

Joe
Developer
Looking for front-end dev? Joe has 10+ years of in-house experience working with HTML, JS, CSS, and other letters too.
Joe’s strengths include being detail-oriented and collaborating with internal and offshore teams. His weaknesses include buffets of any kind.

Ed
Designer & Developer
Ed’s specialty is having two specialties. With 15 years as a web designer, he knows UI and UX. And those skills carry over when he’s developing sites too.
Plus, Ed’s used to working in fast-paced environments at Publishers Clearing House, Online Convergence, and Upromise. Specialties, meet speed. Happy clients, meet Ed.

Keith
Copywriter & Content Marketer
Keith’s our words guy. On-point positioning? Punchy site copy? Sales-driven blog posts? Yes, yes, and cha-ching.
Before writing for TripAdvisor and Care.com, Keith spent 5 years at a marketing agency. His secret recipe is a mix of strategy, creativity, and an unwavering appreciation for serial commas.

Katrina

Katrina knows how to bring in leads via SEO/SEM. Nurture relationships with content. And drive engagement through social media.
Katrina’s worked at Monster Worldwide, Care.com, and Randstad Sourceright. Like any marketing wizard, she can do it all, from strategy to execution. All while looking great in that wizard’s robe.
