Anne (AKA:Purplebutter) - Co-Founder
Anne, the wife of the team, is the co-founder. lead investigator, and case manager of PB&J. She was born and raised in southern California, living there until she graduated high school. She then moved to NC and attended Meredith College, obtaining her degree in Early Childhood Development. Anne and Christopher met in 2000 and married in 2003.
Anne has always had a deep interest in the paranormal. Looking back on her life, it can explain a lot of childhood experiences which got her started down this path.
While Christopher bears to the technical aspects of the team, Anne leads her expertice to client interaction and attention to details, before, during, and after the investigation. Anne really enjoys the personal side of the investigation, getting to know the client and finding out what help the client may need from the group. Working as case manager, she is able to collect a lot of necessary information from the client to help plan investigations.
Anne knows first hand how difficult it can be to discuss the paranormal with anyone for fear of being judged. Through PB & J, Anne wants to help the client be as comfortable as possible discussing the issues as well as giving them any help that may be needed over the course of the investigation and beyond.
This desire to help as well, as her religous background, has lead Anne on another path into the paranormal. She is currently training to become a Demonologist.
Christopher, the husband of the team, is the other co-founder, lead investigator, & tech specialist of PB & J... He was born in
California
, but moved to the mountains of NC when he was 4 years old… At the age of 13 he moved to
Philadelphia
,
PA
where he attended and graduated high school… His college adventure took him to
Pittsburgh
, where he got his EMT certification… He volunteered as an EMT for 2 years until a serious knee injury forced him to return to NC for surgery and recovery… He met Anne soon after and has been married for 5 years…
Christopher has always been interested in the paranormal, and describes himself as an open minded skeptic, having a few experiences he could not explain. He goes into any investigation with an open mind, but doesn’t make any conclusions until the evidence is analyzed thoroughly…
Being the tech nut he is, he has gained a lot knowledge on the various equipment used in paranormal research... However, he still has much to learn… This field is an ongoing learning experience, but he can quickly adapt to the ins and outs of any new piece of equipment… One of his favorite pieces of equipment is the Faraday box, which he built himself… For more information on the Faraday box and other equipment we use, please visit our equipment page by clicking the link up top.
Christopher is also the webmaster of our site… If you would like to link to our site and want a copy of our banner, or if you would like a Faraday box built for you, or have any other questions regarding the equipment we use, please feel free to contact him…
