The Team Behind Your Website, Marketing, and AI Systems.

One dedicated team supported by a network of specialists assembled for every project. Designed for expert-led service businesses that win clients through credibility and trust.

Why Dancing Pels Exists

We believe expert-led service businesses deserve a digital partner who understands how they actually win clients. Not through advertising budgets or aggressive outreach, but through credibility, trust, and reputation built over years of exceptional work.

Most digital solutions are built for volume. More clicks, more traffic, more leads. But that's not how expert-led service businesses grow. They grow when the right people find them, trust what they see, and feel confident enough to start a conversation.

That's why we exist. To build the websites, marketing, and AI systems that turn that credibility into a consistent flow of qualified clients, for businesses where the founder's expertise is the product and every client relationship matters.

Meet the Team

Dancing Pels is built around two principles: deep personal involvement in every project and the right expertise for every need. Julio and Kathia lead every engagement directly. When a project requires specialized skills, we bring in the right people for the job.

Julio Arango

Founder & Strategy Director

Julio leads web design, AI systems implementation, and business strategy at Dancing Pels. Before founding the studio, he spent years in marketing leadership for a financial software company, working across international markets. He understands business operations from the inside. Beyond client work, Julio is an EXMA-certified speaker delivering workshops and keynotes on design and AI.

Kathia Tagaropulos

CEO & Operations Director

Kathia manages operations, finances, and client coordination at Dancing Pels. She brings real-world business experience: she founded and ran her own asset management firm for international clients and led operations for a global foundation in Panama. At Dancing Pels, she applies that same operational rigor to keep projects on track, budgets transparent, and communication clear. You'll work with her throughout your project to ensure delivery stays smooth and organized.

The Right Experts for Every Project

Great films are built by assembling the right talent for each production. Directors, editors, cinematographers, and sound designers are brought together based on what a specific project demands, and guided under a single creative vision.

We work the same way. When your project requires capabilities beyond our core team, we bring in trusted specialists: 3D animators, motion designers, advanced AI developers, SEO specialists, and more. Every collaborator works under our direction, within our process, and to our standards. You get the focus of a boutique studio with the depth of expertise your project actually requires.

How We're Different

We work with expert-led service businesses where the founder's expertise is the product, where trust closes deals, and where a generic digital presence isn't an option. If that describes your business, we understand your world because we operate in it.

The Operator Mindset

We run Dancing Pels on the same websites, marketing, and AI systems we build for clients. Every design decision, every workflow, every strategy is shaped by daily use inside our own expert-led service business. That's the difference between knowing how something works and knowing what it takes to make it work in a real business.

That operator mindset is why we stay deliberately boutique. It keeps us close to the work, grounded in real judgment, and focused on the quality and attention that expert-led businesses expect from a partner.

AI-Era Strategic Thinking

The way clients find and evaluate service businesses has changed. Search is no longer just Google. AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity are now part of how decision-makers research, compare, and choose providers.

We build for this reality. That means understanding how SEO and GEO work together, how AI systems have evolved beyond simple task execution into tools that make decisions and run complete workflows, and how your website, marketing, and AI systems function as a single growth engine rather than separate pieces.

While most studios treat these as isolated services, we design them to work together. You get strategic thinking built for where technology is going, not where it's been.
