Bertie Denby Founder
Webmaster, Research & Technology

Bertie has been intrigued with the paranormal from a very early age. Originally from Houston, Texas she has made her home in Austin. Bertie is a project manager for a global software company, owns a web design business, and makes room for investigations after work. She's had several personal experiences with the paranormal and supports the theory spirits do exist, and wants to collect evidence proving this theory. "My goal is to help people by validating their story. For one, I believe everyone's story. I believe they did have an experience(s) if they believe they did. Sometimes, finding someone who can relate to your story is half the battle. You get some of peace of mind knowing you're not crazy." In her quest to discover "how" spirits may exist she set out to find other individuals with the same idealogy, and as a result founded the Ghost Hunters of Texas.

Russ Steed - Director & Technical Lead

Russ has always found himself engaged in the paranormal field. Mostly skeptic but always knowing there is an answer to everything. Russ has spent 25 years in the Computer Industry with the majority of it in the Audio and Video Communications industry. “Having done EMI testing on commercial and military electronics I know the effects this has on equipment and people. I go to every investigation as a skeptic and want to find the reason for every experience whether it is paranormal or can be explained otherwise”. Russ hope’s with his professional experience he can help find ways to improve how we investigate in this field. By day he is a Network Architect, Engineer, and at night when not out on an investigation, Russ is also a musician.
