Wesley Biggs, CTO
From the day he hooked up his first 300 baud modem, Wes has been developing software and designing platforms for online telecommunications with a passion bordering on the obsessive. At Adfonic, his job ranges from designing the big picture boxes and arrows down to the nitty gritty implementation of key services. When he's not hacking away on the code himself, he's working with the rest of the technical team and our partners on the next batch of innovative features.
