New Year, New Goals (and a Few We’re Definitely Not Keeping)
As the calendar flips to a fresh new year, our team is setting intentions that go beyond the usual “eat better” or “go to the gym” promises. From personal growth to professional dreams (and a few honest “nope, not happening” admissions), here’s what we’re taking into 2026 — and what we’re most definitely not.
Getting Intentional — and a Little Deeper
Ashley Knight is starting the year with a goal that’s all about connection. She’s aiming to be more intentional about engaging with people — not just surface-level chats, but the kind that teach her something new and shift her perspective. She wants to grow by learning from others and surrounding herself with people who make her think, laugh, and see things differently.
Professionally, Ashley’s focus is on growing into her leadership voice — mentoring, sharing what she’s learned, and creating space for her team to thrive. She’s especially passionate about continuing to elevate how PMW shows up for both clients and colleagues.
Non-Resolution: Keeping her car clean. The Cheerio crumbs and toddler chaos have officially been accepted as part of the interior design.
Giving Back & Leveling Up
Mitch Creighton is stepping into 2026 with a goal to join a recurring local community project — a perfect way to stay grounded and give back throughout the year.
At work, Mitch plans to create educational resources for clients and the team alike, helping everyone learn, grow, and work smarter together.
Non-Resolution: Drinking less beer. (Points for honesty, Mitch!)
Leveling Up Confidence — and the Game Backlog
Chadd has his sights set on finishing one video game before buying another. (We admire the optimism.) On the professional side, he’s all about building confidence — trusting the knowledge he already has and continuing to bring that strength to every project.
Non-Resolution: Finishing a video game before buying another. (Because admitting defeat is part of personal growth, right?)
Writing, Creating, and Getting Outside…Maybe
Matt Diebler is tapping into his creative side this year, finally putting pen to paper on a novel idea. It’s the perfect outlet for someone who’s always brimming with ideas and stories.
Professionally, Matt’s focused on getting more comfortable working on custom websites — expanding his technical skills and creative confidence in the process.
Non-Resolution: Spending enough time outside. He might not be logging miles outdoors, but at least his browser tabs are getting plenty of exercise.
Cheers to 2026
As always, our goals reflect who we are — curious, community-minded, creative, and just human enough to admit what we won’t be doing. Whether it’s deepening connections, sharing knowledge, or tackling that ever-growing to-do list (minus the car crumbs), we’re ready to make 2026 a year of growth, laughter, and plenty of lessons learned along the way.
Here’s to resolutions, non-resolutions, and everything in between.
