About
Tubbs Web Works is Zak Higgins and Richie Whitamore, co-founders who grew up together in Midcoast Maine. Here’s how we got from there to here.
Midcoast Maine
We met playing Pee Wee football, went to school together, and have been best friends ever since.
Fishing boats & job sites
We both grew up working blue-collar jobs, including commercial fishing, surrounded by tradespeople, fishermen and small-business owners.
Offshore Outcasts
We co-founded Offshore Outcasts, a fishing apparel and tackle company. It taught us firsthand what it takes to build a small business and a brand.
Connecticut & Maine
While researching local service businesses, Zak found that many had no website, or one that didn’t reflect the quality of their work. We started Tubbs Web Works together to build better ones.
The co-founders
Co-founder
Zak’s background is in entrepreneurship, branding, marketing, e-commerce, website management and business strategy. He designs and develops the websites we build.
Co-founder
Richie has worked in construction, carpentry and boatbuilding, and in automotive sales. He focuses on business development and client relationships.
You’ll meet both of us at your initial consultation, then work directly with Zak or Richie throughout your project.
Tubbs Web Works is named after Zak’s bulldog, Tubbs.
