Michael Delaney

Director of digital development Michael W. Delaney has over 15 years of web development experience, as well as a keen eye for creating useful products to help meet business goals. He’s also passionate about building digital marketing projects which, according to him, “just work” for the user and for the administrator of the product. And he makes it look easy.

Speaking of passion and of making very hard things look very easy: Michael used to be a professional swing dancer and instructor. And if you’re unfamiliar with the tone, style — and speed — of swing dancing, make sure you take a look/listen.

In addition to his dance floor hijinks, Michael is adept at PHP, Laravel, HTML5, CSS, LESS, Sass, JavaScript, jQuery, Webpack, Gulp, Ansible, Git, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Adobe XD, WordPress, WooCommerce, usability, analytics and SEO.

Michael can do all sorts of super hard things, except, he says, one: “That moment when I’m trying to be serious with my son and he pulls ‘a face.’” Not everything is as easy as it looks.
