Our Team

Todd Knowles

Founder & Casino Specialist
toddknowles@stashbird.com

As founder of Stashbird, you might have seen Todd’s name credited on my pages and articles. Todd, as many others in the industry, started out in 2001 as an avid player of online Blackjack and Poker, and managed to work his way up to a pretty high level. After almost 8 years of playing on and off, he was earning enough from playing in online Blackjack and Poker tournaments that he decided to quit his full time job at the time as a high school English teacher to focus entirely on his online Blackjack and Poker career.

Maxim is the latest member of the team, and is focusing mainly on project management and writing the occasional article or informational page. His experience in the iGaming industry mainly comes from playing online Blackjack, which is how he first met Todd in 2018. The two kept running into each other in online Blackjack games which led them to keep in touch through online chat outside of their games as well.
