About: Cody Schindel
Cody Schindel is a graduate of the Web Developer program at Sir Sandford Fleming College. In 2006 Cody developed his own personal photography company with help from the Ontario Summer Company program. Over the past three years, Cody´s professionalism as a businessman and photographer has placed him at some of the biggest go-kart racing events on the continent with many pictures covering the front and the inside of a collection of magazines around the world.
Cody´s passion to become a web developer began in 2004, just as his go-kart racing career was coming to a close. He wanted to keep involved and help promote the sport he loved as it was well under the radar. That summer Cody started learning the basics of HTML coding as he thought it would be great to build websites for drivers and teams to help promote them. Since that summer, Cody has built many websites for many different people. While only a few have been published on the World Wide Web, those that have been published have received great feedback.
Although pursuing a career in web site development, Cody has already established himself as a recognized motorsports photographer. As mentioned, Cody opened his own company in 2006 through the Ontario Summer Company program; however, with a diploma from the Web Developer program, Cody has closed the doors of his own business, and began work as a full time employee at a very well-known motorsports media company as a web site designer and developer. To shut down the business was very tough for Cody, but he was extremely excited to begin his new opportunity as it has taken him and his work to the next level.
