  • Founder & CTO

    Sampa

    (Internet industry)

    February 2005August 2009 (4 years 7 months)

    I founded Sampa because I felt disconnect between people’s need for a place on the web where they can safely share what they want and the current solutions available.

    Almost everyone that is “online” has an email address. But how many have a personal or family website? How many create a baby site for their newborn?

    Our vision is to give you all the resources necessary to create an engaging and beautiful website for you, your family, your baby, your wedding and all the big life milestones that you want to share.

    Sampa has a patent-pending integration with email that automatically notifies your visitors of new content on the site. It also gives them a 1-click access to the content, even if the content is private on the website making it suitable for you to invite people on a wide-range of technical skill set, aka, your family!

    And please, send me all the feedback (good and bad) that you can!
