Originally from outside Boston (Wayland MA) I love the Red Sox and hate the Yankees. Came to the Cuse 18 years ago as a student and never left. My wife Jennifer and I have two children, Nathan and Benjamin who will also be Red Sox fans and learn to hate the Yankees. In addition to running SIDEARM Sports I am an Assistant Professor of Practice at Syracuse University's iSchool. I have a passion for technology and a passion for athletics – what a great match! |

I’m the youngest of the senior staff at SIDEARM Sports (and I often make sure everyone else knows it). I absolutely love change… if my wife wouldn’t divorce me, I would repaint the walls in our house once a month to keep things fresh. I’m a proud graduate of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, and currently reside in Baldwinsville, NY with my wife, Jenny, and my son, Rexton. |

Senior Graphics Designer
kcuthus@sidearmsports.com |
Born and raised out West, I never thought I would end up in Upstate NY. In 2002, I made my way to Cazenovia, which I continuously called "Casanova" since the town is like a scene from a romantic movie. After graduating from Caz College with a BFA in Visual Communications, I decided to stay here and see where it would take me. Lo and behold, I am now apart of the jazzy SIDEARM Sports team! In my spare time, I love to sing karaoke (seriously, can't carry a tune), pretend I'm a paparazzo (photo fanatic), watch movies (HUGE movie buff) and laugh like it's going out of style! |

I grew up in Marcellus, NY just 20 minutes from Syracuse. I love the snow and I love to ski. So I decided to get more of both by going to Vermont for College. I graduated in May of 2010 from Champlain College in Burlington,VT with a bachelor of science in Multimedia and Graphic Design. SIDEARM Sports is an amazing place to work and I couldn’t think of better place to start my career then with SIDEARM Sports. GO CUSE!!!!!. |

Jeremiah Neal
Senior Developer
jneal@sidearmsports.com |
Being an Akron, Ohio native, I’ve had my fair share of disappointments when it comes to professional sports. Be it The Drive, The Fumble, The Shot, The Catch or most frequently The Decision, I’m a Cleveland fan through and through; for better or worse. At least I can root for Ohio State though! I came to Syracuse at the age of 4 and still reside in Liverpool with my wife & daughter. |

Joe Flateau
Developer
joef@sidearmsports.com |
I grew up in Buffalo, NY and decided in October 2010 that that wasn't enough snow for me, so I moved to Syracuse to join SIDEARM Sports. I am a huge fan of the Buffalo Sabres and hockey in general. I enjoy learning new things even if I can't see any practical purpose for learning it; to me learning is often a satisfying end in itself. |

Jeff Snyder
Developer
jeffs@sidearmsports.com |
I graduated from Liverpool High School in 2002 and Ithaca College in 2006 with a B.S. in Computer Information Systems. I worked for Honeywell Scanning & Mobility, formerly Hand Held Products, in Skaneateles, NY for four years as a Software Quality Engineer before landing with Sidearm Sports in 2010. My position as a Jr. Developer allows me to fuse my programming skills with my passion for sports. Outside of the office, I enjoy playing golf and watching almost all sports, especially ‘Cuse basketball and the PGA. I live in Tipperary Hill in Syracuse with my girlfriend Jenn and our two dogs, Koda and Kramer. |

I came to Syracuse in 2009 to pursue my masters degree at SU. I started out at SIDEARM sports as an intern, and today I'm a part of the team here as a Junior Programmer. I am originally from Goa, India, but I grew up in Doha, Qatar, in the Middle East. After finishing high school in Doha, I moved back to India where in 2007 I graduated college with a Bachelors degree in Electronics Engineering. I love to travel and I try to turn every travel opportunity I get into a road trip. And I am a devoted fan of (in no particular order) Indian Cricket, Manchester City, Pink Floyd and Royal Enfield motorcycles. |

I acquired the nickname "Pepe" in my first days working at SIDEARM, and I've come to like it. I’m a 2nd-year student at Syracuse University majoring in Information Technology and have been working at SIDEARM since the beginning of my freshman year. I was lucky enough to hear about this position through Jeff’s introductory computer class. I'm from a suburb outside of Philadelphia, and am a typical Philly sports fan. In my free time, I love working on computers and designing websites.

maxg@sidearmsports.com |
Having lived in Worcester, Massachusetts my entire life, I thought I knew how to handle a heavy amount of snow—until I moved to Syracuse and met one of her Winters. I am an avid supporter of the Boston Red Sox, BRUINS, Celtics, New England Patriots, and of course anything SU Orange! I am also a social media enthusiast, swimmer, skier, and extreme pinballer. I am always available to help you with your streaming needs. |
