The Balsam Brandits
Our team means everything to us—it shapes who we are and how we work. We prioritize finding individuals who want to make an impact in a growing company that values relationship-building, authenticity, and setting the bar high.
Meet some of our team members below and see what makes them tick:
Emma Pascal
When she’s not analyzing data, Emma can be found watching Marvel movies, listening to Taylor Swift, or drinking an espresso.
Davin Chang
Davin is a product sourcer and music geek. When he's not visiting factories, you can find him at a concert.
Krystiana Dela Cuadra
A Jack of All Trades in the office and in photo shoots, Krystiana's obsessions include working out and collecting Nutcrackers.
Chris Arias
When Chris is not working with data and numbers, he is either gaming or trading cryptocurrency
Joshua Falco
Joshua is a self-proclaimed Minister of Design. He bakes pictures, seasons them with creativity and serves 'em "hot".
Emma Keane
By day, Emma's our localization maestro; at night she bakes to the sweet sound of 40's and 50's jazz.
Ginyn Cadavillo
Content marketing, writing, and mommy/wifey duties keep Ginyn busy. To rest, she bakes or escapes to K-drama land.
Miranda Joondeph
Miranda enjoys being a part of the Creative Team and helps craft the Balsam customer experience with her brand design contributions. If she isn’t working, she’s spending time with her husband and son outside!
Terry Shanley
Terry has a “healthy” obsession with warehousing and buying new shoes. When not cycling or running around Ireland, Terry loves working on all things operations, especially optimization of projects.

Christina Focht
Christina is our superwoman of the Boise office! When she’s not planning the next team celebration, you can find her frolicking around the Pacific Northwest visiting family.
Joyce Lin
Apart from managing websites, Joyce enjoys her Instagram feed of cute animal photos and trending #WabbitAdventures.
Nichole Santa Maria
By day, Nichole oversees all of our marketing efforts for Balsam Hill US. By night, you can find her binging all of the latest Hallmark Christmas movies.
Priscilla Spicer
When she’s not handling floral and greenery samples at work, Priscilla is taking care of her 65 (and counting) real indoor plants at home.
Jason Green
While Jason is hard at work in Operations, he is also working his way through the assortment of Balsam provided snacks!
Zha Servidad
Zha loves the world of words. In the multiverse, she coaches a basketball team and manages professional wrestlers.
Paul Dawson
Paul can usually put a puzzle together in 1 day! Even if the box says 2-4 years.
Ronn Lagdameo
Ronn brings all the colors of the rainbow to everything he does -- from marketing campaigns and team get-togethers to celebrating Pride!
Suhaib Qidwai
When Suhaib is not in his eCommerce world, he reads a book, writes an article, or plays board games with his family.
Karen Navarro
Karen knows how to keep customers engaged. At home, she relaxes by whipping delicious meals for her family.
A Growing Team
Balsam has offices worldwide, stretching from our original location in California's Bay Area all the way to the Philippines. We like using work as an excuse to travel to cool new places, so expect to see more cities pop up on this map as we grow!
THE TEAM THAT PLAYS TOGETHER

Fun in the sun
Balsam is known for taking company trips to the Hawaiian Islands. Families are invited and there is no work allowed, only bonding on the beach, the pool and out to eat at great local eateries. We’ve hit Maui, Oahu and the Big Island. Where to next?

Global Team
Balsam team members don't let physical distance stop us from building relationships. We work across our global geographies daily, using technology to keep communications lines open and stay connected to each other.

Games we play
Our office comes alive daily with friendly games of foosball and—occasionally intense—ping pong. We always have a jigsaw puzzles going, for when we need a mental break.
I just wait for the awkward pause and then I know it's me.
