Our Founders:

Vanguard Visual Communications Group LLC was founded in Austin, Texas by Jeremy S. Scardino and Ben M. Pannell. Together, Jeremy and Ben bring a lot of talent and experience to Vanguard.

Jeremy is an award winning Austin artist who has specialized in illustration and graphic design for both print media and Web publication. He has worked with the Internet since the beginning of it's mainstream popularity in the early '90s. In the past, Jeremy has worked and done consulting for a nationwide magazine and various Texas advertising agencies. He oversees all design work for Vanguard to ensure each Web site created is held to the highest standard possible.

“It excites me every time we take on a new project. Most of our clients are amazed at the quality of our work and when they first start to see the results they remember why they chose us.”      - Jeremy Scardino

Ben Pannell is a successful businessman from Houston, Texas who is highly experienced in marketing. Ben knows the importance of a superior product and is very proud of what he and Jeremy have created together. He knows that for Vanguard to be successful, it has to do three things: offer the best Web solutions on the market now and in the future, give outstanding customer support, and spread the word to everyone. Vanguard has not hesitated to do any of those things!

“Many Web design firms overlook the importance of a well designed Web site. We strive to create an image for our clients that represents the professional image they have already established.”      - Ben Pannell

Jeremy & Ben chose the name Vanguard because it's definition, in part, means: the leading position or persons in a movement. They are striving to be just that! Anyone can start a business, but if the passion for your product is not there, it will show. It is clear that both of these guys have the passion it takes to succeed and it shows in every product they produce.
