Still Waters Run Deep
In the early 90's when the Internet exploded, Mike was living in Belize, and nobody knew how to design or build websites. In need of one for his own company, he jetted off to Miami, bought some books, got some fresh milk, and started reading. Through trial and error, Mike designed some of the first successful sites in the country of Belize.
Upon his relocation to the States, he freelanced for a number of ad agencies in Chicago and Los Angeles, building and designing sites for their existing clients, before leaving Brighton Advertising, and breaking out on his own in 2001. Since then, the UC DeSIGNS team has been building sites that range from one page contact sites for small businesses, to extensive, global e-commerce sites. What sets us apart from the rest, is that when you call UC DeSIGNS, you'll be speaking directly to Mike, and together with the team, they will do everything they can to create a website that you will love, and that will get you attention.
Then he'll sit in with your band if you need him to.

How experienced is Tom?
Tom is so experienced that he was in advertising back when they still used “rub on” characters in ads, computers were only in the movies, and if you did have a computer in your office, you still had to shop at a brick and mortar store to buy software. With over (we don't want to say how many) years of experience in marketing, advertising, and design, Tom is an invaluable asset to the team. He can not only design for you, but he can look at existing designs, and make them better in ways you never thought of. Tom has the experience that every team wishes they had.
He's also an Eagle Scout, so if you need a shelter built in the woods, he can help you with that as well.
