Applied to a company email address, should I also apply to the specific person's email?

So, on the company's website where the hiring page is, it says apply to a website email "[email protected]", or by referral to name, name 2, or name 3, but doesn't list those email addresses

But then on the John Gannon VC blog career page, it says apply to "[email protected]" - one of the email addresses to the names above.

I applied to the company [email protected] - should I also apply directly to the person? On one hand, I don't want to pester by applying twice, but on the other hand, I know my chances will be much better applying to a person rather than a company inbox.
