About Me

Meet Rob
My passion is Website Development and Web Design with computer hardware and networking as welcomed distractions. I have had a love of computers since I was a teen. I began developing websites in the mid-90s and built my first computer in 1997.
I enjoy challenging website development projects. I am often asked “Can you do this?” and most often my reply is “Given enough time and money, YES!” The Internet is a canvas that never ends and everyday day brings new challenges. I have been blessed with 2 sons that both enjoy computer programming. It seems to run in the family.

Mr. Fong has done Web Development for Pegeen.com for over 15 years. Always going beyond development for Pegeen, he has assisted in cost savings for the company as well ensuring that the company had proper servers with adequate resources, improved network and communications in the office and always seemed to find us a way to shortcut processes in our daily work. A creative yet methodologist developer, his work is far superior to any other hire or contractor to date. Most importantly, he is a great asset to any team and so hard working that it’s unbelievable.

“In my 10 plus years in the graphic arts field dealing with designers and developers, Mr. Fong has made a significant contribution to our business.
Mr. Fong single-handedly developed a custom web portal for us to keep track of our web design and development projects. The site encompassed all of our needs and every detail was attained to.
Mr. Fong, upon his own initiative, is self-taught on various publishing programs. This skills have come in handy on a number of occasions when we needed assistance in producing site layouts, logos and custom solutions.”
