I left a six figure job to travel the world...WHAT WHAT?!
Hey! My name is McKenna and I am the Founder of Arrova Coast. I left Corporate America in 2017 to travel the world, and haven’t looked back since.
After a trip to Thailand in December 2016, I came back to a new year, new me. I am quitting my job and traveling the World solo! People often ask if I was running away from something. When in fact, I wasn’t running away at all. I was running toward something.
McKenna Fallon
Founder + Lead Website Designer
- Scottsdale, Arizona
- Bali, Indonesia
When I started traveling I knew I wanted to eventually start something of my own. After a year and a half of globe trotting it was time to put my skills to use. With over five years of digital marketing experience at the time and a passion for helping small to medium sized businesses, marketing and web design was an obvious choice.
Most businesses are so great at their craft, but are so lost when it comes to getting their name out. My objective is to let you sit back, relax, and let me figuratively hold your hand through the process. Let’s make marketing fun and not just a necessary evil.
So, why choose 
? After leaving a major corporation, I saw the need for marketing with more of a personal touch. I have been in the industry for over nine years now, know the tricks of the trade, and am continuously passing that on to my team. I have helped over 100 small to medium sized businesses get their websites up and splashed all over the internet in order to gain customers.
But, wait…there are many great Digital Marketing companies out there, how are you different? I believe strongly that people do business with people they like and trust. You are not only buying our services, you are buying our TEAM. After all, you have to genuinely like who you are in a marketing relationship with. Let’s chat and make sure we are a good fit.

Meet The Team!
Hi, I’m Kirsty! I’m a Business Degree graduate who fell in love with Digital Marketing, Social Media and anything to do with the online world. I am a creative mind, a new ideas fanatic, a walking planner, and a matchy-matchy aesthetics queen. I’m always curious for what’s next.
When I’m not working you can find me working on my friends’ and family’s nerves 😉 Kidding. BUT, on an average day I’m surrounded by my friends, annoying my family members, trying out new foodie spots, wine tasting, hiking (with a struggle haha), planning for the next outdoor festival, camping, and staying at our holiday home up the West Coast.
A few of my favorite hobbies include reading, tanning, gardening, Sims (yes.), and taking lots of photos! I’m obsessed with my crazy big family. I have 3 older brothers and 1 older sister making me an aunt to 8 kids. I love easy Sundays, busy Mondays, and a strong cup of coffee.
My name is Marianna Meyer and I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I am a Marketing and Communications graduate with experience working within the fashion industry too – this includes four years of Styling, Social Media Management and Content Creation, Graphic Design and Digital Marketing. Currently, I am focusing my on my role as Client and Content Manager for Arrova Coast, and running a side hustle selling thoughtfully sourced vintage clothing.
I grew up in a small coastal town on the Garden Route with my two siblings who I’m very close with. I’ve always been an ocean baby – so when I’m not working, you’ll either find me surfing, in the mountains or drinking some vino with mates (some of my best memories include all three!).
Hi, I’m Domanique (Dom like in Fast & The Furious). I am a nerd at heart and obsessed with all things digital, AI and tech driven.
I am a digital Swiss-army knife with experience ranging from digital strategy, paid media plans, PPC, execution and analytics.
I have a Masters in Google which I am proud of and can execute any ad unit on any platform.
Nerdiest, coolest thing on my list of accomplishments is I worked for Pokèmon Go for Niantic and HAD to play the game as part of my job.
When I am not working I am either jogging, have a book in my hand or chasing my 4 year old daughter around while she gets up to no good. I enjoy watching DC & Marvel series and movies in the little down time I have and always up for a good laugh.
Hi, I’m Adebowale, and I am your new Website Developer. I’m a full-stack (backend-heavy) software engineer. I use JavaScript as my go to programming language to build both front and backend applications.
I have over 6 years of experience building websites and online presence for clients around the world as a freelancer. My go to tools are Node/Express for building APIs (applications programming interfaces), React/Redux as my frontend framework of choice, and of course, HTML and CSS for presentation.
I just joined Arrova Coast as a web developer where I work on anything from bug fixes, integrations, to website maintenance and management. On the side, I’m working on Sprawts – a donation platform, which I call the gofundme of Africa.
When I’m not working, I’m somewhere solving some data structure and algorithms challenges.
Ruby Koter
Client + Content Manager
Social Media Management, Email Marketing, Business Card & Marketing Collateral Design, & more
- Cape Town, South Africa
Hi, my name is Ruby.
I am a journalism student with an academic background in nutrition. I run a natural, oil-based perfume business on the sidelines and love the process of content creation – writing, design, and of course, I am a sucker for an easy-on-the-eyes aesthetic! I am passionate about connecting through language, both visually and in writing, making the role of client and content manager something I look forward to every day.
I am usually dressed in salt and spend most of my free time sliding up and down the South African coastline in search of its sublime waves or occasionally doing a couple of days trek over fynbos coasted mountains. My friends are my whole heart, and I don’t go a day without feeling over the moon to have them. I recharge with art projects and good music.

- Johannesburg, South Africa
Hi, my name is Happiness!
I am a passionate Leo, deeply in love with marketing and to do lists.
Why marketing? I enjoy and excel in fast-paced environments – Never being satisfied with the status quo means that I have an appetite to question current processes and think outside of the box. I think of myself as a pro at pushing product/service awareness, perception and consideration online.
For the past 3 and a half years, I have been responsible for managing different social media accounts–this includes creating content, monitoring, moderating and scheduling.
I am a huge splash of creativity, solutions and innovation.
When I’m not online, best believe I’m chasing sunsets holding a glass of white wine and secretly thinking about the next post.
I have 1 little sister and as the firstborn; I am your favorite mixture of sugar, spice and everything nice!
A few of my hobbies include listening to music, reading and home DIY’s. Currently, I am obsessed with traveling, our new home and my fiancé 😍
Nadhira Ananta
Client + Content Manager
Social Media Management, Email Marketing, Business Card & Marketing Collateral Design, & more
- Bali, Indonesia
Hi, I’m Nadhira from Indonesia, and I’ll be your new Client + Content Manager! I currently live in Bali but am originally from Jakarta, the capital – which makes me a city girl at heart. I graduated with a Communications degree majoring in Public Relations, but my real passion is in all things digital marketing.
I would think of myself as a creative person, tinkering and trying out different elements in the graphic design department where I let my ideas flow, but I’m also a sucker when it comes to data analysis. I enjoy making reports and creating beautiful graphics that make clients go, wow!
Aside from my professional life, I like bringing friends together and playing board games with them once a week. Yes, I’m a board game nerd and no, not the Monopoly-type… I’m very into modern strategy games with lots of thinking involved. CrossFit is also something I enjoy doing 5 times a week to start my day fresh and fully energized.

- Bali, Indonesia
Hi, I’m Mylda! I’m from Indonesia. After 10+ years in the corporate world, I’m now soaking up the Bali vibes. I’m all about digital marketing and love using it to get creative and make things pop. When I’m not working, I’m snapping photos, boxing, doing yoga, or hanging out with my family, friends, and my awesome dogs. 😊
