Ripley is the shortest and fluffiest member of the Barcadia Media team, and comes to work with director Andy.

Her skills include notifying us of visitors at the front door and boosting morale, and she has met her monthly target of 'being adorable' with a 100% success rate. She likes jumping onto unsuspecting laps for a snooze, playing fetch with Property Reporter editor Warren, and going for long lunchtime walks along the promenade.

Ripley is notoriously bad at replying to emails or answering the phone, but you can catch glimpses of her on our Twitter account, @BarcadiaMedia.
