🎉 25 Years of Cascade Web Development!
25 years ago today, Ben McKinley officially founded Cascade Web Development. What started as a backup plan in 2001 has grown into something pretty special.
Over the years, we've watched technology evolve, navigated countless changes in our industry, and had the privilege of working with some incredible people and organizations along the way.
But what makes this milestone especially meaningful isn't just the work we've done. It's the relationships we've built.
In a note to the team this morning, Ben reflected on what 25 years means to him:
"So grateful that we get up each morning and choose to put in the work for each other and our clients." — Ben McKinley, Founder
That sentiment really captures who we are.
We're fortunate to have a team with relationships spanning decades, clients who've trusted us for years, and a number of former colleagues and partners who've helped shape Cascade along the way.
And perhaps the most exciting part? After 25 years, we still have the curiosity, motivation, and energy of a startup. We're proud of where we've been, but even more excited about where we're going.
To everyone who's been part of the journey, thank you. We wouldn't be here without you.
25 years in. Still building. Still evolving.🥂
P.S. Apparently, we share a birthday with Snoop Dogg. So we've got that going for us. 😎
