John C. Souza

BayNet Web Services was founded by Web designer/developer John C. Souza in January 2001. Working with a small group of associates, Mr. Souza specializes in concise, contemporary Web design with an emphasis on content, readability, artistic graphics, smooth navigational flow, and search engine optimization.

With twelve years of experience in design & development, Mr. Souza is uniquely qualified to assist small businesses and organizations in the development of websites and online strategies.

Mr. Souza's resume includes 1½ years on the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth Web Team, where he worked on the university's site and assisted professors with online courses. He also worked in the Online Services Division of the New Bedford Standard-Times for 4 years, where he posted the online newspaper, built numerous websites for small businesses, and taught Internet classes.

Mr. Souza received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in 1993. He also received a Master of Arts degree in Professional Writing from the UMass Dartmouth Graduate School in May 2005. The topic of Mr. Souza's 105-page Masters thesis was "Jump-Start Your Website! A Search Engine Optimization Guide For Better Search Engine Ranking." The intention of this book is to help individuals, small businesses, and non-profit organizations attain higher ranking for their websites in the leading search engines.

Mr. Souza is currently in his 11th year of teaching Web Design & Development in the Computer Information Technology Department at Old Colony Regional Vocational Technical High School in Rochester, Massachusetts.

Jeffrey Golenski

Jeff became involved in web design when he was about fourteen years old, a young teen in junior high school. During high school, he began to follow the Web Standards. In his junior year, Jeff won first place in the Bristol Community College Web Design Competition.

In his senior year, Jeff attended the SkillsUSA National Web Design Competition in Kansas City, Missouri. The competition, hosted by The World Organization of Webmasters, was comprised of dozens of student teams from throughout the United States (and some U.S. territories). Representing Massachusetts along with fellow student Jeff Cormier, Jeff G. won the Bronze Medallion (third place in the United States) in the Web Design Competition.

Jeff's graphic design passion came about shortly after his discovery of the Web. Jeff realized he wouldn't be able to create much of a site if he couldn't design and create his own graphics and layouts.

Photography is yet another of Jeff's passions. A serious amateur and hobbyist, he got into digital photography in 2003, just about halfway through his high school career. Jeff is mainly a landscape and nature photographer, but also uses his talent to capture images of all subjects - including photos for his web work.

Jeff is currently a student at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island. He is pursuing a double major in college: an Associate's degree in Web Development and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Graphics & New Media. Jeff's personal website can be viewed at www.midnight-shift.net.
