Brock

Front-End Developer

Brock is an UI designer and native Ohioan. His interest in computers was sparked at an early age when his father brought home a Tandy (it didn’t even have a mouse!) as the family’s first PC. Since then Brock has been hooked. Years later he started learning the basics of HTML and CSS while putting together a small two-page site devoted to his favorite video games.

Brock lives in Wooster with his wife Kim and their two cats, Weasel and Baby Tide.
