Introducing - Craig Lewis
 This month we'd like to introduce you to Craig Lewis, Central Desktop's Senior Software Engineer. Prior to joining Central Desktop, and the web world for that matter, Craig was a software engineer at Motorola, where he learned how important it was to find out what customers need, and not just what they're asking for. That contributed to his strong interest in SaaS applications. Craig carried that interest in SaaS over to CNET, where he spent eight years working at CNET's Channel Division as the System Administrator and Senior Software Engineer for SaaS applications. During those eight years, he also met the Central Desktop employees Arnulf Hsu, Isaac Garcia and Trey Hyde. Years later, Craig joined the Central Desktop team, and the rest is history. In his spare time, Craig enjoys gardening, reading, running a couple of websites and is an avid home brewer. His most memorable moment was winning the 1997 demolition round in the Jerry Sanders Design Competition. Want to connect with our Senior Software Engineer?
