Our History

We’ve been building and maintaining websites for clients since 2000. In 2006, we incorporated Stranger Studios, LLC and took our passion for the Internet full time. We now perform work for more than 30 clients every year including small and large businesses, musicians, web startups, artists, designers, non-profit organizations, and medical and law offices.

Directors

Our directors are the husband-and-wife team of Jason and Kim Coleman (awwww).

Jason Coleman

CEO, Development Lead
A true entrepreneur is invigorated by uncertainty, risk and the thrill of new opportunities. Jason exemplifies this definition to a T. In 2004, Jason graduated with a degree in computer science from Haverford College. After graduation, Jason began work as an analyst at a leading international consulting firm. While maintaining his full-time position as a consultant, Jason spent his evenings and weekends working on projects with Stranger Studios. In 2006, Jason retired from corporate life to fully devote himself to Stranger Studios.

Kim Coleman

Director, Creative Lead
Kim Coleman is Stranger Studios’ co-founder and the agency’s creative eye. She oversees all design work, including website layout, new business identity and logo creation, print marketing, and new media campaigns. Kim performs the template design and programming of Stranger Studios’ Custom Wordpress Themes and plugins. She strives to push the envelope of current Web 2.0 design, while still maintaing a timeless and practical user-interface with every design.

Kim Coleman graduated from Villanova University with a B.S. in Business Administration and Entrepreneurship. In 2008, Jason and Kim welcomed their first son, Isaac Ford Coleman (pictured to the right). She has no free time to do interesting things, but if she did you’d find her cooking lovely dinners or decorating our home.
