We’re Kristie and John Ross — partners in business and in life — and the team behind BeaconEdge Innovations. Our company grew out of countless late-night conversations, morning coffee brainstorms, and a shared belief that things can work better — for people, for businesses, and for the future.

Kristie brings over 25 years of experience in the hospitality and restaurant industry, working throughout the Seacoast and Portland areas. Her deep understanding of service, operations, and what makes a business run smoothly is the heart of our people-first approach.

John’s background is in insurance and tech, with over a decade spent helping businesses streamline systems, automate workflows, and solve complicated problems with practical tools.

Together, we’ve built BeaconEdge to combine those worlds — hospitality meets technology, with a focus on solutions that actually make life easier for business owners.

We’re proudly based in Hiram, Maine, and deeply connected to the Portland business community. But our work isn't limited by geography. Whether you’re around the corner or across the country, we’re here to help you work smarter, not harder.
