John Peele
Design & Web Development (Partner)“People think it's this veneer -- that the designers are handed this box and told, 'Make it look good!' That's not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” - Steve Jobs
John has worked in the web design industry for over a decade. He has worked for several very successful design firms and as a freelance designer for 4 years prior to founding Rockbeatspaper with his brother, Dave, in November 2004. After years of making other people rich and lonely days as a freelancer, John decided to take a leap of faith and founded his own web design agency. And so, Rockbeatspaper was born.
John is a graduate of the prestigious School of Design at North Carolina State University. He is the resident designer, lover of all things Mac, and over-informed web surfer around the office. When he is not designing and building great web sites, John enjoys spending time with his wife and 2 beautiful children, loving God & attending church, mountain biking and playing soccer.
