MEET THE DEVLEAGUE TEAM

Some people in life you have the good fortune of crossing paths, seeing sparks fly and left wondering how it all happened. These are our merry band of misfits, nerds, gamers, and tech savants and we couldn’t be happier to call them family.

JASON SEWELL

Jason is also co-founder of award-winning Hawaii-based software development shop, Sudokrew, specializing in leading-edge web application development and infrastructure.

A music lover and full-time dad, our bearded leader can sometimes be found in his secret lair of the Sudokrew offices jamming on the drums.

He has a beard… ~~always~~, sometimes.
