the braintrust

On January 2, 2009, two friends shared a bottle of wine on a bridge in Austin, TX. In addition to breaking several city ordinances, that night P.J. and Craig hatched the plan that would eventually become Bearded Pony. Though their initial attempts at appstore glory failed to net retirement-worthy riches, the two persevered, and in May 2009, the duo became a trio with the addition of Fisher Floyd, the spirit and voice of the operation. Today, Bearded Pony has a resume that includes over 20 apps and top 20 appearances in the Social Networking, Utilities, Sports, Reference, Business, and Entertainment categories of the iTunes App Store.

P.J. the Pony
P.J. Tanzillo, Code Monkey

P.J. Tanzillo is the Chief Technical and Executive Officer of Bearded Pony, and he provides the wizardry that makes the apps hum. With an eye for making hard things easy and easy things drop-dead simple, P.J. is the reason that Bearded Pony's apps are the most user-friendly apps in the store...hands down.

Craig the Beard
Craig Steckbeck, Design Guru

Craig D. Steckbeck is the Chief Creative Officer at Bearded Pony. With his eye for design and his uncanny knack of sketching out an icon on a bar napkin, Craig gives Bearded Pony its blend of the hip and the classic, the polished and the raw, the deceptively simple and the quietly ornate.

Fisher the Swisher
Fisher Floyd, Marketing Master

Fisher Floyd is the Chief Marketing Officer and Head of Business Development for Bearded Pony, and he provides the spirit and inspiration that separates Bearded Pony from ordinary iPhone app companies. The quintessential idea man, Fisher's tenacity, motivational skills, and propensity for the absurd are truly the pistons in the company's engine.
