Carved was founded on a deep desire to define something new. To create a place where natural materials intersect modern technology. To give new life to discarded pieces of wood. To integrate nature with the devices we carry. When you are passionate and excited about the day's challenges you approach the day differently. Whether we are simply diving into the production demands, giving an impromptu news interview, climbing on the roof for a morning meeting, exploring our 100 year old building for another stellar photograph or scrubbing the beautiful hardwood floors, we do it because we value working hard and creating something naturally unique. Technology is cold and ordinary. We love making something that is unique as a product and as an experience.carved.com

In 2007 I founded Ad Stream with a focus on web design and online marketing (SEO & PPC) for local businesses. Using all that I learned from my past experiences, I built Ad Stream into a successful local web design business. We are a small team with a sharp focus on web design and e-commerce for small businesses. Thanks to the strengths of each member, we are able to launch usable, powerful websites consistently on-time and on-budget.

I was 15 when I started Dragonfly Footbags and started learning e-commerce, web design and online marketing as I built that company. Dragonfly, now operated by my little brother, is a leader in the footbag industry and the premier online retailer for footbags (hacky sacks). Our website has almost 10,000 individual reviews for our products and the average rating of our footbags is 4.8 stars. Much of what I learned creating Dragonfly has been the foundation for other business endeavors.

I founded Wicker.com, which markets and sells outdoor wicker furniture. Our focus all day, every day, is on customer service and we seek e-commerce solutions to help us. Our management team is highly experienced in retail sales, product development, manufacturing processes and internet development.
