Michael Musgrove

Owner, web design POP, Ltd. Co.

Louisville, KY, USA
I'm an English major with an MBA, but don't let that fool you. I enjoy designing and building responsive websites with the cleanest code so they work on the back end as well as they look on the front, and most importantly, are productive and achieve results. I understand business well, and have a flair for marketing, but am equally right-brained. I love to design and create visions that are solutions to complex problems.

I build responsive websites that convert, play guitar, love dogs, technology, and SEC football. And I'm trying to learn to play the banjo.
