Becky BanksBecky always wanted to be a veterinarian so naturally she graduated college with a BFA in film. After working for several years in the movie biz, her nerd like tendencies prompted her to return to school for her doctorate in veterinary medicine.

nathen-cuNathen Kooi

Nathen credits his love of movies to the escapism they provide, often finding a way to relate to characters and their story arcs. His favorite genres are horror and psychological thrillers; no matter how rough things get – he always finds a good takeaway for life – “It’s never as bad as it is in a horror film!”  He holds a masters in business from Baker College, works as an insurance agent and can mix a mean cocktail.
