Technical Penguins is a digital consulting agency with more than 30 years' experience at the intersection of technology and information. Whether you're looking to improve your digital footprint, need code written or are trying to figure out how to make your processes flow smoother, we've been there, done that. Let us help un-stick you.
We are Joan Concilio and Kaitlyn Concilio, the dynamic duo (with some able leadership from Link Pengin) who run Technical Penguins, a woman-owned small business based in the western United States. The name comes from the nonprofit we co-founded, Pengins for Everyone, which gives free stuffed penguins to those in need, and our general love of these adorkable little birds.
Co-owner, Principal Technical Consultant
Kait has been coding websites since the Y2K bug was a real concern, and still remembers dialing into the library computer via terminal to reserve books. She primarily does development and design. In addition to writing software, both in-house and as a consultant, she’s previously worked in print and digital design for newspapers. When not on the computer, she enjoys reading and improv comedy.
Co-owner
Nothing makes Joan happier than a well-organized system or process. Joan focuses on workflow analysis, data design, and content writing and editing, with a solid dose of front-end development for funsies. Joan has worked in web development, design and management since 1999 in the journalism, higher education, personal finance and homeschooling spaces – and is one of those weird tech people who likes non-computer hobbies, like reading physical media, kayaking, practicing martial arts and making abstract art. Joan’s hair is rarely the same color two months in a row.
Web Admiral
Link is one of our many penguins (we call them “pengins”), and among the most … we’ll say “insistent.” She’s a web developer who helped with this site as well as Pengins for Everyone. She insists all her titles (there are many) include “admiral,” because “it’s higher than a captain.” In her spare time, she enjoys hugs.
