Philip’s journey is a little different than most. He created his very first website at eight.

Also passionate about art and design, he would spend hours reading books on IT and design, and explore different computer languages. As a kid, he was genuinely amazed by the numerous aspects technology were being utilized in our everyday life.
Fast forward a few years and through a whole lot of failed attempts, he is now a designer and developer. While in high school, he decided to do something big. He opened his own digital design studio, PKGamma Digital Agency, and had the honor to develop services and products in a range of categories for companies and nonprofits and impact the bottom line.
