Manager
Ruchie Chadha: Hi, I’m Ruchie! I am the President here at Smokeball. I oversee the US Executive Team which is made up of the Product, Marketing, Sales, Finance, and Client teams. As a practicing attorney in Chicagoland, I know firsthand how important it is to find the best way serve your clients and build a healthy business. I love working at Smokeball because it allows me to combine my legal background and technology to focus on delivering innovative solutions to lawyers all over the country (with the bonus of working with amazing, fun, and dedicated people every day!)

Colleague
Mary Ellen: Hi, I’m Mary Ellen! I’ve been working in Chicago tech for 10 years, starting out as a support specialist and working my way into Product Management. As the US Head of Product, I am passionate about building features which are intuitive and truly understand the client’s needs. Our Product Team is autonomous day to day but collaborate heavily with each other and other teams to figure out sticky issues or to come up with the best UX for a new feature. Aside from work, I am an enthusiast for national parks, my garden, and all levels of quality of tacos.
Team Members
Arturo Garza: Hi, I’m Art! As the Director of Finance, my goal is to support the business and work with our leaders to grow the company in a smart and efficient way. That includes tackling everything from transactional accounting to FP&A. When I started with the company three years ago, I was a team of one here in our Chicago office. Now the finance team has grown to six staff members to help meet the demands of our growing client base! Although our continued growth is exciting, my favorite part about working for Smokeball remains the people I work with! I draw so much energy from their enthusiasm it makes it that much easier to get up for work each day. When I'm not working, my free time typically consists of doing something active - golf, soccer, or working out!
