The core of ParaCore

Our work may be digital, but it’s the real people behind the scenes that make all the difference. Their curiosity and creativity have propelled us from a one-man development shop to a top-notch digital marketing team in just a few years.

The people who make everything possible

    Adam Arkfeld

    President & Founder

    “And when you want something, all the world conspires in helping you achieve it.”

    I was on the keto diet for a minute so I order a double steak bowl, no rice, light pinto beans (now, not when on keto!), fajitas, cheese, guacamole, all 3 salsas, and no sour cream (sick!). Fills you up but doesn’t feel like a brick in your stomach.

    Agh! La Croix or Cold Brew!? I’d go with La Croix (coconut flavor) because I drink an average of 3 a day. I can grab cold brew in the morning on the way in, but La Croix is an absolute staple for me in the afternoon.

    Get up super early, like 4:00 am. Meditate, journal, do something I want to focus on for work, go to hot yoga, take the family to an activity in the morning, grab lunch on a patio, read while the kids are napping, go out to dinner, then go to bed before 10.

    I used to be a pretty big rap fan. I’ve been to 5 Lil Wayne concerts and they were all amazing and horrible at the same time. I think the love somehow stems from my jazz band roots in high school.

    Without the burrito! ;) Always shredded lettuce on the bottom of my bowl, it’s critical, along with lots and lots of green tabasco!

    Coconut La Croix! 100%

    A little retail therapy, I can literally shop for hours and hours... and come back a better person!

    I studied Arabic after visiting Egypt twice in one year... I love the language and would love to be fluent!

    “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”

    Burrito bowl*
    Shredded lettuce on the bottom. Double brown rice. Black beans. Double veggies. Double meat (chicken or steak depending on what looks fresher) but I wait until Chipotle employee puts first spoon of meat into bowl before stating that I want double meat, this typically results in getting more meat overall. Pico de gallo. Corn. Cheese. Guacamole. Salad dressing on the side is a must.

    Cold brew coffee

    Take a private jet to Barcelona, spend the whole day on the beach and eat all the tapas in sight. Take a siesta at some point just to say I did.

    I played on the varsity chess team!

    I’m all about the low-carb lifestyle, so I order my Chipotle burrito as a salad! In my salad I get lettuce, no black beans or cilantro rice, grilled veggies, chicken, medium salsa, and guacamole!

    Endless Starbucks Matcha Green Tea Lattes with coconut milk!

    I’d take a private jet to Mammoth to go snowboarding for the day!

    I’m a pretty good Texas Hold’em player!

    My go-to order is a sofritas burrito bowl with brown rice, black beans, fajita veggies, lettuce, every type of salsa, and guacamole. Yum!

    Definitely coconut water!

    I would most likely sleep in for a bit, cook a nice breakfast, and play with my dog. The afternoon would be spent with friends either shopping or laying out by the pool. To end my perfect Saturday, I would get dressed up and go to one of my favorite restaurants for a fancy dinner.

    I love to cook and I hope to go to culinary school for fun in the future!

  • ParaCore has been amazing. Their staff is extremely knowledgeable and professional. After trying to personally navigate Google Ad's for a couple of years I found it to be confusing and ever changing. Having a professional, knowledgeable company like ParaCore has increased the quality of leads and reduced our monthly spend. I highly recommend ParaCore.
