Meet our awesome team!

Of the roughly 600,000 words that Wikimotive publishes monthly, almost all of it goes by Kelsea in some capacity. Kelsea started at Wikimotive as an editor but has worked her way up to Content Operations Manager, handling the day-to-day goings of both the editors and the writers that work for Wikimotive.

As the Content Operations Manager, she oversees the planning, assignment, and production of all content produced by Wikimotive. From answering emails to hunting down information for a client, there is never a dull day in the content department.

Outside of the office, Kelsea has amassed a great number of hobbies, from taking care of plants and her animals to miniatures, paper crafts, and embroidery. You can often find her wandering around a craft store, pet supplies store, or a greenhouse in her spare time if she doesn’t have her nose buried in a Neil Gaiman novel.

With a tenacious drive for accuracy and a work ethic to match, her tireless efforts at home and in the office translate to a near-endless stream of superb content.

The editorial equivalent of a Colorado-class super dreadnought, Wyatt arrived at Wikimotive heavily-armed, and ready to deliver results.

Fueled by his passion for both history and geopolitics, Wyatt has earned his Bachelors Degree from St. John’s College and Masters Degree in Military History from Norwich University. During his tenure at the former, he was Captain of the Fencing Club (and once counted ‘Certified Archery Instructor’ among his uniquely impressive credentials). When not serving as part of our editorial team, Wyatt enjoys his time managing a naval history blog.

As a graduate of the Television and Film Writing program at Emerson College, Peter arrived at Wikimotive with an impressive array of invaluable skillsets, further supplementing the vision and commitment to excellence that defines our Editorial Team.

A welcome addition to the Wikimotive family, Peter’s passion for music reigns paramount during his time outside the office. An avid attendee of live performances, Peter boasts a particular affinity for metal bands and those that find their home across the spectrum of heavy metal subgenres.

A student of television, Kris got a degree in screenwriting, won a short script competition, and promptly forsook the studio system for the freedom of authordom. He wrote a five-part biography on the legendary folk duo Simon & Garfunkel, the latter of which did not appreciate (Garfunkels everywhere hate him!!), followed by various novels (transgressive fiction, coming-of-age horror, epistolary alt-history, rabbit-themed psychosis amidst a midlife crisis, etcetera) and an indulgent history/comedy podcast he co-hosts with his wife.

Shy at the outset, he is unexpectedly eccentric and prone to enthusiastic rants about niche topics that aren’t conventionally considered fascinating. He is a former schoolteacher, defense contractor, and Disney intern, and is forever a progressive malcontent. When not at work, or at work, Kris can be found in his carefully-simulated ‘human’ enclosure, neurotically archiving ideas and inspiration, curating playlists of new music, devouring Wikipedia, and trying to keep up with his precocious, devious corndog/sunbeam of a daughter.

(Ask him about his musical.)

In addition to John’s responsibilities as a member of our Editorial team, he is the Food and Drink writer for the Hippo, a regional newspaper, and the head cocktail writer for Heavy Table, an online food magazine based out of Minneapolis.

John is a father, husband, avid gardener, and flea market enthusiast. In addition, he was once beaten by an angry, machete-wielding mob of Kikuyu outside Nairobi and – even more perilously – spent 25 years as a middle school teacher in Africa and the US.

He believes strongly in the power of cheese.
