Chris Underwood is the Lead Designer for Nicasio and brings a fresh look to each one of our projects. Chris graduated from the University of West Florida (Pensacola, FL) in 2005 with a B.S. in Information Technology / Digital Media and also holds a minor in Advertising. He plans on attending graduate school in the future to obtain a Masters degree in either Motion Graphics or Graphic Design.

Chris has an eye for the smallest of details and doesn't mind working around the clock to meet any customer's deadlines. Not only is Chris able to design a wide assortment of print & web related materials, he is also our Front-end Developer. He has a knack for building websites from scratch using only his imagination and a text editor! Chris firmly believes that Microsoft should honor the hard work of each and every web development firm for having to build websites that are compatible with its older versions of Internet Explorer.

Dan Cannon learned how to build a website before he learned how to drive. This passion as a youth led to a career path when Dan entered Georgia Southern University and began studying Information Technology. While pursuing his undergraduate degree in Information Technology, Dan worked as the Web Applications Developer for the Center for Excellence in Teaching at GSU. There Dan created a centralized information system allowing all of the department's data to be easily accessed and shared among faculty. Dan also designed and built an online article review system for the department's scholarly journal - one of the first of this type of system.

Dan received his B.S. in Information Technology in 2008 and began working as the Web Applications Developer for Nicasio Design and Development in Savannah where he spearheaded the development of the company's e-commerce solution, NicE-Comm.

When he's not building innovative web apps, Dan unwinds by riding motorcycles and watching college football (specifically the Tennessee Volunteers and Georgia Southern Eagles).
