Casey Turton. He’s the owner.
Call him first.

Casey’s career in computer graphics began in 1981. Before that, he worked as a journalist for a medium-size Midwest daily newspaper. His credentials include a journalism degree and supplemental training in corporate communications. He served on the Lorain (OH) Community College Journalism Advisory Board, where he also taught newswriting, reporting and newspaper layout/design.

His career with the General Electric Information Systems Divsion put him in the forefront of computer graphics with the Genigraphics Division. This technology laid the groundwork for Microsoft’s Power Point software, 3D animation and film output.

He got involved with the internet in 1991 when a customer approached him, asking for a way to increase their sales market without huge costs. Casey researched the web, learned about search engines (not many at that time!) and began his career as an web design/internet specialist. To be honest, the first web site was not much to look at by today’s standards, but it did the job!

Casey enhanced his software consulting skills working on database development projects for corporate clients.
