About Us

Darius Henry Sr.

Founder & CEO

The visionary behind Zonely. Darius had an epiphany while looking at a property on Zillow and simultaneously trying to plan his move on 17 different apps. He thought, "There has to be a better way." Turns out, there was.

Fun Fact: Still refuses to use spreadsheets. "That's what interns are for," he says. We don't have interns.

Dr. James "AI Whisperer" Patterson

Chief AI Architect

James designs all the AI magic behind Zonely's property analysis, predictive models, and investment scoring algorithms. He taught our AI to spot a good deal faster than most investors can refresh Zillow. Previously worked at OpenAI before deciding real estate needed more intelligence (the artificial kind).

Fun Fact: Has 47 unread messages in the company Slack because he's too busy teaching machines to think. Claims his neural networks are "like his children, but better behaved."

Sarah "No-Filter" Martinez

Head of Customer Happiness

Sarah answers every support ticket with brutal honesty and surprising amounts of caffeine. She once told a user, "Did you try turning it off and back on? No? Well there's your problem." They gave her 5 stars.

Fun Fact: Holds the company record for most coffee consumed in a single Zoom call (7 cups).

Nia "Pixel Perfect" Williams

Lead Designer

Nia will fight you over 2px of padding. Literally. She once restarted a meeting because a button was "slightly off-center." The button was centered. Nia just has very specific opinions about buttons.

Fun Fact: Uses Comic Sans ironically. We think.

Dr. Emily "The Algorithm" Chen

Chief Data Scientist

Has three PhDs and still can't figure out how to unmute herself on Zoom calls. Emily's machine learning models are so accurate, they predicted the company pizza order before anyone was hungry.

Fun Fact: Speaks fluent Python but still struggles with small talk at parties.

Tyler "Viral or Bust" Anderson

Growth Marketing Wizard

Tyler insists everything needs to be "synergized" and "optimized for maximum engagement." No one knows what this means, but our Instagram followers tripled, so we let him keep talking.

Fun Fact: Has never met a buzzword he didn't love. Currently trying to make "Deal Room Renaissance" a thing.

Mr. Whiskers

Chief Morale Officer

Our four-legged team member. Mr. Whiskers attends every meeting, contributes nothing of value, and gets paid in treats. Basically, he's living the dream. Also, he's a cat. Don't ask.

Fun Fact: Once deleted 3 hours of code by walking across a keyboard. Team voted him Employee of the Month anyway.
