Ben Kirst, Digital Communication Manager: Ben runs the show at Buffalo.com and frequently binges on Pepsi Max.  He’s polite and rarely late.

Ben Tsujimoto, Online Content Coordinator: Ben is the office goat, willing to eat any and every food scrap nearby.  He manages the freelance photographer program and has pleasant penmanship. 

Kathryn Przybyla, Social Content Coordinator: Kathryn is really, really positive and just can’t say no to a hockey game or good country music.

Also on Buffalo.com: 

Avery Hartmans:  Former Buffalo.com intern, current Syracuse University student and fashion fanatic.  She gently corrects our fashion faux pas in the “Ask Avery” column each Friday—ask her a question, she’s an ocean of style knowledge.

Hungry Hungry Buffaloes:  Phil Kneitinger downs extraordinary amounts of food (little gets lodged in his beard), Donnie Burtless is the fun-loving MC, Adam Kern provides the cool t-shirts and S.J. Velasquez meticulously produces.  Enjoy the weekly video series!

Molly Hoeltke:  Sole proprietor of Once Vintage, a fashion stylist and art director, Hoeltke wears a number of different hats (figuratively and literally)—she’s immersed in the local fashion scene and understands both art and fashion trends.  She drops some of her fashion wisdom on Buffalo.com on occasion, too.

Road Less Traveled Productions: Scott Behrend of RLTP—one of the city’s edgier, up-and-coming theatre companies—offers a regular behind-the-scenes look at life on (and off) the Buffalo boards.
