 Anthony Carlos, Vice President, Chief Technology Officer
Anthony started working with computers back in 1983, when his parents bought him an Apple IIe. He spent way too much time in front of that fascinating machine in the darkened, windowless basement of his home. Convinced that he could shed his pocket protector, he initially sought an alternate career path and earned a B.A. in Chemistry from Cornell University in 1993.
After graduation he gathered experience working as a software trainer, Web master, and database consultant. In 2000, Anthony came to Digital Phenom where he is now Chief Technology Officer. He is most proud of the fact that his office is not in the basement, he has a window, and that his pocket protector is nowhere to be found.
Anthony and his wife have a baby boy named Casey.
 Eric Korn, Sales and Marketing Director
Eric graduated from James Madison University in 2004 with a BS degree in Economics. His college career was punctuated with several interesting endeavors, including the use of mathematical modeling to change the way JMU markets itself to minority students and an ill-fated candidacy for the position of student body president. His interests include all things outdoors include hunting, fishing and hiking. Having played guitar in a band though college, Eric continues to “rock out” when he thinks no one is watching. He has worked as a marketing and sales representative in a variety of fields and is proud to be a customer liaison for Digital Phenom. Eric can be reached at

 Ismaila Togola, Web Master, Programmer
In the developing African country of Mali, where few knew about the existence of theInternet in the early 1990's, let alone how to use it, a young Ismaila braved his mother's interdictions to spend nights in front of his beat up monitor, teaching himself code and creating his own website at the age of fifteen.
This passion, which led his friends to call him "Joe Computer" would follow him to the United States where he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science with a concentration in Computer Security & Information Assurance from The George Washington University.
Eager to promote the web in his home country, Ismaila created the website Bamanet.net in 2003, which continues to attract visitors from all over the world.
He also continued to create numerous sites for various companies and non-profit organizations in DC. Digital Phenom is thrilled to welcome Ismaila Togola to the Digital Phenom team as web master, lead programmer and security specialist. His creativity and motivation will bring much value to the company.
 Maxim Leyzerovich, Web Designer, Web Master
Having been raised in the U.S. and Ukraine and having traveled abroad extensively, Maxim is a firm believer in the necessity of communication. This, coupled with a strong passion for technology, guided him to start his own company as a college freshman. Initially motivated by business and profit, he soon realized the importance of technology in running a business and developing a product.
Over the next two years, Maxim learned everything from the day-to-day logistics of company operations to the nuance and presentation of selling a product and service to clients. He sold the company for a profit and chose instead to concentrate on his academics at The George Washington University.
Maxim is always looking for ways to leverage the emergence of technology to optimize business, and ultimately society, through innovation and usability. Maxim will be helping clients with their web development, email, advertising campaigns and any other technology related problems that arise.
