Our Company
Infowit was founded by a team of graphic design, marketing
communications and software
professionals with many decades of experience. In its original form, Infowit
Creative Manager was developed as an in-house solution built specifically to match the needs of
a single three decade-old marketing communications firm, and was proven in
a classic "trial-by-fire"
environment dealing with real-world situations and clients. Completely redeveloped
from the ground up, Infowit has taken these roots and transformed them into
a flexible and robust solution that adapts to the unique needs of each business it
serves. Infowit maintains offices in Los Angeles and the Silicon Valley.

as the Program Director for application development and database technologies at
