We value: integrity, creativity, growth and quality.
Carson Pierce - Principal
Carson manages our accounts, projects and business, so in most cases he'll be your main contact at Idea Market. He is of that rare breed who understands both design concepts and programming languages, yet is actually good with people. Who knew?
Carson graduated with his BComm in marketing back before the web really emerged, but jumped right onto the internet in 1993. Over the next decade he owned and operated such diverse companies as a daycare and an industrial music record label. Carson started working as a professional webbie in 2002, formed his own company in 2005, then merged with Idea Market in 2006. If you see his name on a hockey pool list, don't even bother.

Nicole Braseth - Art Director
Nicole finagled her way into Idea Market with her crafty use of the English language. She writes good. When not wordsmithing, Nicole counts print design amongst her talents (long live InDesign).
Nicole graduated from the University of Alberta with a Bachelor's degree in Design in 2006 and has been creating professionally since. She enjoys pointing out errors in grammar and that buffalo is a misnomer (North America is home to bison only...bison, bison, BISON). She makes up for such idiosyncrasies by baking delicious pies and loving live music.

Graeme Duckett - Lead Web Designer
Graeme, who interned for us at Idea Market in 2007, now takes his place as an all-around designer. (See, kids? Dreams CAN come true!) Web, print, branding? No problem, Graeme's a part of it.
Graeme joins Idea Market after earning his New Media Production and Design diploma from SAIT and having worked in the trenches as a freelancer. His appreciation for all things design makes him an even bigger asset to our team. Graeme loves traveling, he's mostly bilingual ("Mes pantalons sont faits de fromage") and is a total tech nerd.
