Brian Anders founded DELTA |v| in 2004 after devoting nine years to the motor vehicle accident reconstruction industry. His primary responsibility is focusing on the overall growth of the company. In this role, he influences talent development, client expansion and financial management. He is also the keeper of DELTA |v|’s culture—a role of utmost importance to him.

Working after high school as a full-time dockworker and switcher operator for a local trucking company during difficult financial times, Brian earned enough to work his way through school. After nine years, he had earned both his Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science in Mechanical Engineering with an emphasis on heavy truck brake systems. During college, he also assisted his future wife on private investigation assignments with her company.

Brian combined his introduction to trucking, his education in engineering, and exposure to investigations to launch a career in the industry of heavy vehicle accident reconstruction. He quickly developed a knack for developing strong working relationships with clients and found the business of professional services very rewarding.

After 18 years practicing as a Professional Engineer, DELTA |v| collectively decided to have Brian switch gears and focus on developing the company into a firm with integrity and longevity, where both colleagues and clients can thrive. He continues to mentor colleagues on various technical matters, but most often on the best practices of nurturing healthy client relationships. His overall goal is to have a positive impact on each professional life that he touches.

Outside of DELTA |v|, Brian enjoys competing in triathlons and spending time with his wife and two daughters.

“Weirdo” and “nerd” are atypical professional descriptors, unless you’re in marketing.

Undoubtedly, marketers must be a bit different to succeed. Aside from requisite knowledge of the industry and their firm’s target client personas, it’s a big part of how these individuals help their companies grow and thrive. Add in a great sense of humor and the ability to talk to anyone about anything at the drop of a dime and you have the recipe for marketing gold.

For DELTA |v|, that came in the form of Karina Tabron who joined the company as Marketing Coordinator in September 2018. In her role, she helps drive the growth and expansion of DELTA |v| and its subsidiaries. In December 2020, Karina took on the role of Marketing & Production Manager.

Karina’s unique background encompasses both professional services marketing and graphic design. She earned both her BS in Graphic Design and MS in Entertainment Business from Full Sail University.

When asked to describe her favorite aspects of marketing, the words creativity, innovation, storytelling, and connections came to Karina’s mind. Each plays a role in how she thinks and acts, as well as how she forms meaningful connections with her colleagues and clients. Karina is excited to make a difference through her work at DELTA |v|.

DELTA |v| rose to the top of Karina’s list as her employer of choice because of its environment, culture, and work ethic. In her own words:

 “Any person can work FOR a company and do a good job without much interest in the actual work. But I wanted to work WITH a great company and make a difference that would matter (both internally and externally). And I wanted to do so passionately about not only my work, but the work of DELTA |v| as well.”

Outside of the office, you may find Karina freelance designing, cooking, reading/writing, catching up on shows/movies, and kickboxing. On weekends, she enjoys traveling, spending time with family and friends, going to festivals/concerts/shows, hiking, filming, volunteering, and visiting breweries/wineries.

In order to be successful, marketers must be able to understand and effectively communicate with people from a wide array of backgrounds and life experiences. Coming from an undergraduate discipline of Organizational Communication, American Studies, and Women and Gender Studies at UNC Charlotte, Justin brings a unique perspective to DELTA |v| as they continue to serve clients all across the nation. 

Justin Clemence joined the DELTA |v| team in 2021 as the Marketing and Events Coordinator. Justin handles marketing vendor relations, coordinates marketing events and conferences, updates and maintains the CRM, and assists in the creation of various marketing materials. His affable personality and love for meeting new people make him an invaluable asset to DELTA |v|’s vendor relations and external marketing efforts. 

What drew Justin to come work for DELTA |v| was the value they place on maintaining a positive and inviting company culture and a collaborative and supportive team environment. As Justin put it, “I like that I can come to work knowing that my peers truly care about me.”

Outside of the office, you’ll likely find Justin hanging out with friends, exercising, exploring one of the 30+ local breweries, or spoiling his two dogs Capri and Finn.
