Mission & History

aiu online

I’m Max McChesney, co-founder of DigitalCrafts. The DigitalCrafts story began in 2014 with me as a prospective bootcamp student.

Several years into my career, I was working an office job that paid the bills but didn’t satisfy my curiosity or desire to build something new—a feeling many of our students have echoed in the years since.
