While small, Carla packs a BIG punch. It is rumoured she once designed, coded and launched a new website in under two hours, all while sipping on a cappuccino casually scrolling through Instagram. True story.

Starting her Five By Five journey in 2017 as our Project Manager, Carla’s role in the business quickly blossomed. She now spends her time making sure our clients, team, community and business is happy & healthy as our CEO.

When Carla isn’t thinking about our clients (very rarely), our team, wrangling WordPress & solving problems, you can find her at the beach taking photos of and patting (other peoples) dogs.
