We’d like to congratulate Ally on picking up a new job in her adopted home city of Berlin! She’ll be working as a front-end developer at Edenspiekermann, an agency of enough import to merit a couple of Wikipedia pages.

It’s a big opportunity and we wish Ally all the best going forward as an Icelab alum. Luckily for us, she’s still helping us out a little every week as we gradually catch up to her immense Blueprint experience.

The Dingoes put on an extremely good showing, but sadly went down to Great Britain in tightly fought quarter final. Max is now giving his body a well-deserved rest after the months of heavy training he’s undergone before representing the country.

Are you wondering what ultimate frisbee looks like? Max makes it look spectacular:
