Meet the Staff
At SpinTaxi, we take our misinformation very seriously—which is why we’ve assembled a crack team of thinkers, pranksters, ex-journalists, and emotionally unavailable geniuses. Each staff member brings their own brand of delusion and brilliance to the newsroom. Get to know the minds behind the madness.
Sigrid Bjornsson – Editor-in-Chief
Once accused of defaming a toaster in Reykjavik, Sigrid now oversees all editorial content while playing the accordion during deadlines. She holds a fake PhD in Satirical Thermodynamics and speaks fluent passive-aggression in six languages. Her motto: “If it makes sense, we’re doing it wrong.”
Jasmine Carter – Head of SEO & Crystal Healing
Jasmine believes every headline should align with both Google’s algorithm and Mercury’s retrograde. When she’s not stuffing keywords like “papal scuba incident,” she’s burning sage in the server room to chase away the ghost of Edward R. Murrow.
Savannah Steele – Senior Satirical Investigator
A former DMV clerk turned truth assassin, Savannah leads exposés on sacred cows and TikTok clowns. She has embedded with three cults, two state fairs, and one family reunion gone terribly wrong. Her catchphrase: “Sources say you’re full of it.”
Marisol Vega – Art Director & Meme Curator
Marisol designs all our illustrations, headlines, and scandalous infographics using MS Paint and ancient Dadaist principles. Once banned from Etsy for selling cursed stock photos, she now embeds subliminal chaos into every image (look closely, there’s always a goat).
Ingrid Johansson – Legal Affairs & Fictional Litigation
Ingrid drafts cease-and-desist letters for lawsuits that don’t exist. Fluent in parody law and Elvish, she once defended SpinTaxi in a mock trial conducted by ferrets. She’s also co-author of the landmark decision: “Satire v. Sense, 2021.”
Dusty Chadwell – Field Correspondent (Unpaid)
Former rodeo clown and accidental philosopher, Dusty reports from places no one asked him to go. He covers political conventions, county jails, and renaissance fairs with the same confused optimism. Dusty types exclusively on a stolen PalmPilot and signs emails with “Yeehaw, maybe.”
Maren Delacroix – Director of Fact-Distortion
Maren’s job is to massage, stretch, and totally reinvent facts until they resemble something printable. She’s known for adding random quotes from Voltaire to grocery store reviews. Her guiding principle: “If no one else said it, we probably did.”
Lotte – Anonymous Intern
Known only by her first name and a suspicious laugh, Lotte handles everything from research to conjuring headlines during eclipses. It’s unclear whether she’s human, algorithm, or folklore, but she keeps getting promoted by accident.
Alan Nafzger – Publisher
The myth. The man. The unpaid invoice. Alan founded SpinTaxi in a fever dream about Texas politics and never woke up. He personally approves every headline that might result in a Congressional inquiry. He once got into a bar fight over punctuation.
