Justin Kifer (CEO/President)

Justin loves developing web applications and building businesses.  He enjoys that GigBooks gives him the ability to help creative professionals grow their businesses.  GigBooks is Justin’s second web application he has been involved in developing.  

When Justin isn’t using his mind for the greater good of GigBooks he is carting his huskies to the dog park, playing drums/guitar or reading the latest business magazines.  Justin is learning skijoring and aspires to one day have a dog sled team.  When Amanda (GigBooks' VP of Marketing and Justin's wife) asks where he plans to keep all those dogs he quickly replies, “They’ll sleep on the couch.”  Amanda disagrees with his plan.  


Amanda Kifer (VP, Marketing)

Amanda thrives on creative projects.  Whether it is taking a photograph, marketing a new product, or making Justin laugh with an impromptu song about their dogs, she always comes up with great new ideas.  With GigBooks she is the self proclaimed non-technical person who gives insight of how certain new features would make her life simpler.

When Amanda is not enjoying photography or GigBooks she is training her Siberian Husky (Lily) for competitive dog agility.  She is also learning skijoring with both her Siberian Huskies.  

Amanda graduated from Penn State University and is a Portrait and Wedding Photographer.  


Tom Kifer (VP, Product & Technology)

Tom has been programming for more than twenty five years and his involvement in the wedding and event industry dates back to 2002. As the VP, Product & Technology for GigBooks, Tom is responsible for directing the development team in all efforts related to the design, features and functionality of the GigBooks application. 

Tom holds a B.A. degree in Computer Science and a minor in Business from the University of Pittsburgh.
