About Us

We love to create!
It really is that simple. One of the reasons Plasticmind Design is so set on providing personal, one-on-one service to our customers is because that’s how this whole thing got started.
For years, Jesse Gardner had been doodling on napkins, recording radio programs on cassette tape and tinkering with computers. The fascination with the pen soon became a fascination with the mouse (not long after the invention of the mouse), and programming in BASIC soon became programming in HTML.
After years of practicing magic with Photoshop, learning HTML the old-fashioned way (edit->view source) and doing his own blogging with Movable Type, the idea struck to combine these skills with the administrative superpowers of his wife Jessica. Why not start a business that gives people the opportunity to express themselves visually along with the power and flexibility to directly control the content on their site> Imagine that—a site that looks good and puts you in control! The nerve!
So, in 2005, Plasticmind Design was born.
You’re probably thinking: how do we give you control? Well, there are a lot of tools for managing your website, and not every one is right for you. We’ve worked with everything from Zen Cart to our own custom Flickr gallery; but we most often work with Movable Type because it’s really powerful and lets us craft your website around you. That’s the beauty of Movable Type—the power is yours. Do what you want with your site. Forge new contacts for your small business. Bring your political ideas to the world’s stage. Stay in touch with the family.
The possibilities really are endless, and that’s what drives Plasticmind Design—giving you the power to express yourself.
