Notes from Ankur

Oakwood Digital is an extension of me. It encompasses everything I've learned in the past decade including the skills, connections, and experiences. When you work with Oakwood, I am your principal contact throughout the life of the project.

Hometown Vision
I grew up nestled in the mountains of Charleston, West Virginia. Here, the outdoors were a place for adventure – a place to train our curious minds. Now, we apply that same curiosity to technology for the web.
Driving Force
Nothing feels better than overcoming obstacles when developing new products. It’s like playing a video game. When you finally get it right, you know it's a winner.
Coding Background
When I was 12, the online-game I played banned me for being too young. So, I spent a year teaching myself to code and released three competing games. Revenge is how I learned to code.
Future Outlook
I want to grow with purpose. I hope the projects that we work on give back to communities and serve higher purposes. Ultimately, I just want us to always be creating.
Our Advantage
We're partners. Not only will we build you really good tech, but it will be the tech you actually need. Our projects include as much strategic consulting as they do coding.
Outdoor Passions
When I'm not behind a computer, I play outside and lead bicycle tours for ACA. I've ridden from Vancouver to Mexico, and many more trips to come.
Who We Help
Businesses
We know what it’s like to run a business. Your goals are our goals. We’re your partner for creating custom digital solutions.
Nonprofits
With our expanding portfolio of creative web solutions for nonprofits, we’ve become masters at enhancing the digital prowess of mission-driven organizations.
Agencies
Sometimes projects need a little extra technical umph. We integrate with existing teams and infuse tech superpowers into any task.
Project Stages

Discovery

We are the bridge between the world of custom software and your business. Our discovery phase consists of in-person and on-line conversations between our team and yours. We're partners here, and together, we leave this phase with a collaborative plan for action.

Design

We transform project needs into wire-frames that effectively convey our end result. Once those hit the mark, we move on to high fidelity designs to allow all parties to experience the end product early in the project – without code.

Development

At this point, we’re ready to put code to keyboard and turn your project into reality. We’ll execute this stage with weekly sprints to allow for speed and timely updates to your team.

Launch

When ready to launch, we enter a beta phase first, kicking off a period of quality assurance and results data collection. And after we tighten up all the pieces, this project is ready to see the light.

Review

Projects aren’t over when we launch. We’ll debrief after the project has been live for a few weeks and establish a plan to ensure maintainability of the project long-term.
