Mike Tigas is a 21 year old web developer and journalist. Mike was born on March 7, 1987 in New Jersey, grew up in Columbia, Missouri and Florissant, Missouri, and is now an undergraduate student at the University of Missouri - Columbia, majoring in information technology[1] and convergence journalism[2]. (That was a lungful, wasn't it?)
Mike works by day as a web developer at Plus1 Media, a local search engine optimization company, specializing in internal lead databases, web design, blog deployment, and messageboard deployment. In the past few years, two Plus1 sister companies have placed in the Inc. 500 list of fastest growing U.S. private companies.
Mike also works at the University's student newspaper, The Maneater, as Assistant Online Editor, occasionally taking up duties as a staff photographer and graphic/page designer. In the Winter of 2007-2008, he served as the primary developer for a new Maneater website, powered by Django. The site launched in February 2008.
His hobbies include photography[3], learning guitar, trying to dabble in creative writing, playing DotA, and occasionally tearing it up in Dance Dance Revolution.
