Jim Spice Email & Phone Number

Preferring the official job title "Web Guy," I enjoy exploring the many and diverse aspects of web design and marketing. This pursuit represents the third leg in my career journey, having previously explored academic research and teaching, as well as restaurant and event management.Self-taught, I began studying internet solutions in earnest during a stint as stay-at-home-dad at the Spice family household. Before I began, I would never have envisioned myself on this path. But it really synced with many of my interests. I've always loved logic puzzles, and dissecting a piece of computer code to see how it worked, then reassembling it to do something different scratched that itch perfectly. I also enjoy the continued education required by the fast changing field, and learning the workings of the many different businesses my clients represent. I've always aspired to the Renaissance-Man role, throwing my hat into many different rings. This is right down my alley.Interestingly, in an age of an increasingly smaller world where the internet makes distance less of a factor, I prefer taking on clients within a 30-minute drive of home. Number one, I think it's very important to maintain face-to-face relationships. Second, all my clients, no matter what their field, have one thing in common -- geography -- and with the increasing emphasis on local search marketing, it's very useful to apply lessons learned from one project to the next. Finally, I like my clients to know that if I don't treat them right, I'm not too far away that they can't drive over and egg my house.I am a strong proponent of the Open Source Software movement, a believer in the paperless office, and a supporter of W3C standards.I live in Milwaukee, WI with my wife Linda and two daughters, who, along with my mother and closest friends, consider me "amicable" and "comely."
