About Scott
Webslinger / The Boss
Scott founded Wishingline Design Studios in 2003 after working as a web designer / developer / IT administrator / computer geek for far too long under the guise of a corporate shill. During that time he designed and developed creative solutions for numerous international clients such as Masterfile, Volkswagen, AGS Glazing, TD Canada Trust, Floral Fetish Design, Schneider Foods, Michelinas, Sobeys, TetraPak, Tim Hortons, BBDO, FCB Toronto and Kraft (among others).
Scott is the resident designer, president and CEO, CIO and über-geek ‘ round these parts. Aside from creating and building things, he enjoys reading books, magazines, the newspaper and cereal boxes, watching movies, visiting the local art galleries, listening to music, taking pictures, playing with the cat and spending time with his wife, baby girl and friends.
Every once and a while he gets a crazy idea and makes a sad attempt at learning a new musical instrument so that one day he can be a one-man band. Current fad: ukulele
Scott also holds the highly coveted Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech) degree from Ryerson University in beautiful downtown Toronto, Canada, is a registered ADC member and holds a certificate in Project Management from the University of Toronto.
