Good storytelling is hard enough, but when you add grammar into the mix, the whole thing can get a bit confusing. How are you supposed to know if you need a comma? Semicolon?

The Five Types of People You Meet on Social

We spend a lot of time on social media, and we get really acquainted with several stereotypes that we run into on, like, every post.

Our Favorite Michigan Summer Beers

Although some of us obviously stick to our (iced) red wine and White Claws (have we mentioned we’re throwing a Basic Party next month?), there are a select few on the 8THIRTYFOUR team who prefer to relax with a beer.

No, we have a million crazy dogs, we like to jam out to some awesome music, and we win awards like it’s no one’s business (It’s someone’s business. It’s literally Kim’s).

Get to Know #Team834: Jen Van Ee

“We fix it.” Of all of our core values, that’s the one that comes to Jen’s mind when she’s crushing it for our clients.
