Bluebeam Operations

John founded OBC in 2006 as a 3rd-party consultant for Autodesk working on the Buzzsaw platform with Architects, Engineers, and Production Homebuilders. Project collaboration is in his blood. His history with Bluebeam Software goes back to 2002 when Bluebeam Pushbutton PDF was released (yes, that's what it was called back then).  When he isn't doing what he considers to be "important" stuff at OBC, he's traveling or hiking somewhere in beautiful Arizona or following Pearl Jam around the country. 

20 years of experience in client service with a background ranging from corporate retail to public relations for non-profits. Sarah has worked with customers and executives in almost every realm of sales. She's got an answer for every situation imaginable. If you've called, chatted, emailed, or visited us somewhere out on the road.....you've likely met Sarah. She's "kind of a big deal" - Anchorman

Natalie joins OBC as the first EVER Customer Success Manager – and help you succeed she will. With a background in client relations and customer service ranging from Home Inspections to GoDaddy sales and support, her diverse experience with client needs is guaranteed to impress. Oh did we mention she's bilingual? Yep, she is, English and Spanish is what she speaks. Natalie is what some would call a SUPERNERD.  She can often be found in her favorite Marvel superhero tee watching Game of Thrones with her family.  Oh, she's also a Bluebeam Certified Instructor......so there's that.

We welcomed Gaby to OBC in 2018 - and we haven’t looked back more than twice. Gaby joins us from the fast-paced world of Go Daddy corporate and brings with her a zest for customer service, a bilingual slang dictionary and a fierce competitive edge. She learned to drive at 12 years old and hasn’t slowed down since. After a long day of exceptional customer service and Bluebeam support she enjoys a fine glass of wine.
