Our team
Scott Dunham

Scott Dunham – Founder

Scott has been in the answering service business since 1988, working in customer service, sales, bookkeeping, customer relations — you name it, he’s probably done it. Scott is patient and methodical, and finds a kind of serenity in his work.

When not at his desk, Scott can be found on hiking trails all along the front range in Colorado — sometimes leading his hiking group, and sometimes being led by his dog, Teddy. He also enjoys gardening and listening to audio books.


Chad Phillips – CEO

Chad became interested in computer programming back in junior high school, and has worked as a professional developer for more than 15 years. His primary focus has been in building complex software and computer systems, with specific expertise in voice communications and web software. He is highly security-conscious and tends towards being a perfectionist at work.

In his free time, Chad loves expanding his horizons; he has been a longtime meditator and practitioner of Vinyasa yoga, and he also donates a lot of his free time consulting on and writing software for open source projects. When he’s not in front of a computer you can find him drinking Kombucha Tea and playing his guitar.

Diana Holman – Customer Service Manager

Diana has been working in the answering service industry for 36 years, and has been serving customers in some form or another since she was 15 years old. Her philosophy of treating others as she would want to be treated “at all times and in every aspect of my life” has served her, and Apartment Lines, quite well.
