Kevin Miller

CEO

Kevin is the founder and CEO of RunRev, overseeing a global team and development of the Rev programming language. Kevin founded RunRev with the vision of taking HyperCard forward as Rev, which resulted in the acquisition of the multi-platform development engine from MetaCard Corporation, and financial backing from Mike Markkula, the legendary venture capitalist and early Apple investor.

Kevin began programming at age 12 on a Mac LC, first in HyperCard and SuperCard, and created an RPG game as a hobby with friends. This early hobby led to his developing Learn to Type, a more commercially realizable project. After discovering MetaCard, his programming interests and instincts matured, and he began to realize his vision of bringing an English-like programming to a wider audience.

Since Rev 1.0, Kevin has passionately evolved the company and product. He manages a global team and a modern technology company. The product itself is enormously advanced from its early roots, but retains Kevin’s vision of powerful yet simple programming for everyone.

In his spare time Kevin plays the piano, enjoys recreational climbing and plays squash. He has a cat named Oscar.

Mark Waddingham

Director of Technology

Mark is the Director of Technology and the driving force behind every Rev release over the last two years. He is intimately involved in planning and operations at RunRev, with jobs ranging from coding the Rev engine, to supporting all of Runtime's developers.

Mark began programming in BASIC at age five when he acquired a ZX Spectrum. He moved on to the Amiga at age 10 where he taught himself Amiga BASIC, 68k Assembly Language and C. At age 13 he had moved on to an Acorn Archimedies A5000, where he continued to program in C and C++, writing utilities for his school. Two events at about this time sparked Mark's interest in computer languages: One was the arrival of version 1 of Linux, the other was his discovery of "Compilers: Principles, Techniques and Tools".

Mark attended the University of Bath in South West England completing courses in Computing and Mathematics. By his third year he became frustrated with the limitations of the computing course and spent his last two years almost exclusively reading Mathematics. In 2001 he began a PhD in pure mathematics at Edinburgh University, where he met Kevin, and by early 2004 postponed his academic career and joined RunRev.

Mark is a fan of Science Fiction and Fantasy as well as modern literature and other fiction. He aims to play the piano more than he does and is currently learning Chopin's Revolutionary Etude.

Bill Marriott

Director of Marketing

Bill is Director of Marketing for RunRev and a 20-year veteran of the computer industry. Bill has held high-impact positions with consumer software companies such as Apple, AT&T, and Microsoft

Bill began his career with Apple subsidiary Claris in 1989, creating the original version of the "TechInfo" knowledge base, and contributed hundreds of technical articles on the full library of Claris applications to the system. Using HyperCard, he wrote software to repurpose that information for fax-based response systems, bulletin boards, and online databases on AppleLink, Genie, CompuServe, and America Online. He also launched two quarterly publications including the TechInfo Journal, a product which eventually became the FileMaker Solutions Alliance.

Bill later joined America Online to become one of the company's original three product managers, focused on online publishing technology. At MSN, Bill was a lead product manager responsible for customer loyalty and competitive analysis. He played a key role in moving MSN to flat-rate, unlimited access, a move which forced AOL and other ISPs to do the same. He drove upgrade compliance through several iterations of the service, and managed several crises through the fledgling network's growing pains, managed all aspects of customer communication, and directed the team managing the MSN home/start page.

After Microsoft, Bill became a marketing and software consultant, working with hardware makers, game developers, and hospitals. It was then he discovered Rev, volunteered to manage the Rev "Open Beta" program in November 2006, and was named Director of Marketing in October 2007.

Bill holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism from Northwestern University and lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
