About Us & Client Testimonials

 

 
  Teri Hanes, our founder and owner, is a Web Designer, Developer and started the business when her husband retired and dragged her along to the piney woods of east Texas. It is difficult to find programming jobs in a rural area. She did not want to do a long commute of about 60 miles one way to get a job, so she started Hanes Originals.  She found that web sites were needed as the town just down the road, Jefferson, TX is a large bed and breakfast community and has a great deal of tourism.

Today Hanes Originals likes to count many of these businesses as their clients.

James Gambill, our Perl and C programmer is also a Unix/Linux Systems Engineer. He handles the Network for Hanes Originals and makes sure it is up and running 99.9% of the time.
