Past Work

Once upon a time, some 20 years ago I had the overwhelming desire to get a computer. My buddy Ray had one when I was in grade 7, but I had no interest back then. Fast forward to my early 20s, working in a fine dining establishment and the highlight of my culinary career, I met a guy named Jeff and we became friends.

Jeff and his roommate where into computer games and on the internet. We’d hang out and I’d absorb what I could, my interest began to skyrocket. I remember that my first PC came soon after that, A Pentium 1.3GHz with an 8Gig hard drive and 13″ curved screen monitor. Shortly after that I took a job as a handyman/runaround at a local company that owed an ISP and a couple internet cafes. I did it all and worked my way into a desk job and designing websites. The company transitioned to doing on line gaming, at which I flourished. Attention grabbing, exciting and very cutting edge, my experience with emerging tech was growing. This was a very exciting time!


I taught myself how to web design from the very beginnings of the World Wide Web. The internet was young, as was Windows! I immersed myself in designing graphics and getting them up on the web, I learned code at a stressful pace and pushed hard to understand and troubleshoot things. Not too long after feeling ready to pursue reward for my skills, I landed at Go Internet. They owed a few Internet cafe’s, were an ISP and Long Distance/Calling card provider and……did online casino gaming……

Go Casino/Golden Palace
Go Casino was my first real gig. I got to travel to Vegas to get the feel of a real casino to enhance my ability to create visually stunning front ends and eye catching play environments. Gaming revenue was over $8 Million a month! Banner ads were fun to design and attracted tons of traffic to the sites. Eventually we teamed up with Golden Palace and everything started to melt into one. I moved on with my knowledge, it was a fun ride.


Waterloo Manufacturing
My first real paying job out of the gate. I was actually kind of surprised since back then I had long hair and looked little like Kid Rock. Originally founded in 1850 as a manufacturing company of farm machinery equipment, WatMan have evolved into a full service boiler sales and service organization. they don’t use my design anymore but I remember them being easy to work with and a good group of people.

Pioneer Canada
I was pretty lucky to land Pioneer as a client at the time. The internet was young and it was kind of easy to wow people that were forward looking and understood what potential it had. A website is basically a brochure, one that can move and is easy to change when your business does. Pioneer was bought into the hype and knew what they were looking to achieve with their web presence. They also understood how the user needed to interact to make it a value. We learned a lot from each other but eventually I couldn’t do for them the same thing a firm could. On to other things.

 

SSI Schaefer

At around 70 operative companies and more than ten domestic and international production sites, we develop innovative concepts and solutions for our customers’ industries. In this process, we shape the future of intralogistics. They’re huge now, I think they moved overseas. Good company to work with.
