Wade Weppler CEO and CTO

Wade Weppler is CEO, Chief Technology Officer and founder of WW Works.  Wade started WW Works in 1990 as mainly a software development firm while still enrolled in McMaster University's Computer Science program.  After graduating in 1993 with a B.Sc. Wade dedicated all of his time to WW Works and started moving away from software development, and more toward sales, service, hosting, and technology development.  In the process, Wade's experience and passion for technology has paved the way to a set of proven standards and in-house developed systems.  These are now used at WW Works to provide a unique service to a broad range of clients in Canada and the World.

Wade has now built WW Works into a leading Business Systems provider in the Golden Horseshoe region of Ontario, Canada, committed to bringing all-in, flat-fee services to a loyal base of forward-thinking clients. In 1996 WW Works hired its first full-time technical analyst, and is constantly growing.  In his spare time, Wade enjoys spending time with his 3 nieces, as well as playing golf and is still an avid gamer with his closest friends.
