We are proud to have a full-service team, right here in the Edmonton area, ready to help our community connect to the digital world.
THE TECHNICAL TEAM
Derrick MeyerPresident


Derrick has a sensitivity and insight into people not often seen—something he’s cultivated from his studies in psychology and from his years with EMS. His love of computers stems from childhood, and, today, as president of Digital Link, Derrick combines his deep empathy and sincere desire to cultivate positive relationships with his unbridled passion for IT. His love of all things tech, football, mountain climbing and music is matched only by his love for his wife Amanda, their three sons and his giant schnauzer, Icarus.
Charles TwetenIT Specialist


With certification coursework in network administration at NAIT, as well as CCNA and MCSE designations, Charles cites conversion of a large enterprise to cloud technology among his career highlights. He credits his determination, attention to detail and ability to adapt to change for these successes. A fan of both Game of Thrones and Walking Dead, Charles is also an avid hockey player and hunter. No one questions how intimidating Charles is as left wing, but we’re not entirely convinced that brandishing a hockey stick will help defend the post-apocalyptic Iron Throne from throngs of zombies, rabid wolves and man eating cougars.
THE DESIGN TEAM
Amanda MeyerGraphic Designer


Having studied at the University of Alberta and at Concordia University of Edmonton, Amanda has a background in the sciences and photography. Realizing that visual communication is her true calling, however, she went on to pursue design studies at MacEwan University and, in the course of her career, has created innovative layouts for books, magazines and websites. When not designing for Digital Link or dissuading husband Derrick and their three sons from declaring full-blown Nerf war on one another, Amanda often completely loses herself in a good book or risks losing her voice cheering for the Edmonton Oilers.
Jason TurnerWeb Developer


A self-professed die-hard gamer, Jason is a self-taught web developer whose love of computers started when, as a child, he helped his father build a PC. Additional courses in Flash development, web design and programming fed that boyhood passion and helped chart Jason’s future career path. A graduate of NAIT’s Digital Media and IT program, Jason, when not performing rad tricks on his skateboard, can be found skulking through the catacombs of Skyrim or vanquishing his enemies in World of Warcraft.
Rachelle DrouinCopywriter


An alumna of the University of Alberta and a graduate of MacEwan University’s Public Relations program, Rachelle has extensive experience not only writing, editing and desktop publishing, but also moderating online communities, and developing web and social media strategies. She’s written on contemporary women’s issues, music, health and technology. When not actively copywriting, Rachelle enjoys singing, playing the piano, and open world fantasy games. Proficient in French and Spanish, as well as English, she hopes her musical influences will magically manifest into a multi-language rock opera where both dragons and vocals soar.
Kristi ShmyrDigital Communications


Kristi holds a criminology degree from the University of Alberta, as well as a Holistic Health Practitioner diploma from MacEwan University. An avid cook and foodie, she relies on her training in both nutrition and Ukrainian dance to work off her love of potatoes and bacon. Her passion for good food has led her to one of the world’s top three restaurants and Modena, Italy, where, with luck, she may just catch sight of her celebrity crush, actor Idris Elba. Should that happen, Kristi will no doubt leverage her fine writing and social media skills to own the Internet.
Rod McIntyreAccounting Manager


Born and raised in Edmonton, Rod credits his strong work ethic, service orientation and knowledge of business operations for his career longevity. A NAIT graduate, he has enjoyed over 40 years in accounting and finance, 20 of those helping to grow a small construction company into a major player in the industry. When not managing accounting processes for Digital Link, Rod, an avid golf enthusiast, dreams of playing St. Andrews Links’ seven renowned courses. Working out and keeping fit are on par with his wellness goals.
