MattKelliShaneFacesOfTahoeCityIt’s #facesoftahoecity Friday! Meet Matt Shane & Kelli Shane, co-founders of MSK Digital Media & Tahoe City locals.

Matt & Kelli both grew up in the SF Bay Area (Matt in Novato & Kelli on the Peninsula), but they didn’t meet until living in the freshman dorms at University of Colorado Boulder. They graduated in English Lit in 2003 and were married in 2004.

After graduation, they moved back to the Bay Area and eventually to Los Angeles for Kelli to pursue her acting career (check out her new Cheetos commercial!) and Matt to pursue web development and programming.

In 2010, MSK Digital Media was born out Matt’s desire to use technology and creativity to help small businesses. Shortly thereafter, Kelli joined Matt to help clients identify needs, build their brand, and craft email and social marketing strategies.

Growing tired of the hustle of Los Angeles, Matt and Kelli packed their bags and moved to Matt’s family’s second home in Tahoe City’s Lake Forest community in 2014. Both Matt and Kelli grew up vacationing in Tahoe City, so the nostalgic move north was “full circle.”

Matt and Kelli LOVE working together, supporting small businesses, and using both their left and right brains. They LOVE Tahoe City because of the small town community, connection to nature, and balance they have found here.

When they’re not working, you can find them spending time with family, camping, Matt homebrewing, Kelli volunteering as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), at Skylandia Beach with their goldendoodle (Sadie), and enjoying favorite hangouts across Tahoe City (Christy Hill Sand Bar, Tahoe Art Haus & Cinema, and many more)!

Matt and Kelli are excited to be working with the Tahoe City Downtown Association to elevate Tahoe City’s online presence through creating new websites for Concerts at Commons Beach and the TCDA!

If you are ready to help your business avoid shoulder season struggles, contact MSK Digital Media to become your one-stop shop to perfect your online presence. Matt (the web wizard) and Kelli (the brand builder) will definitely take your business to a new level!
