Some talented and smart local students have been one of the core links to creating one of Utah Valley's award winning companies. Matthew Christiansen, Taylor Bramall, Johnathan Woodbrey and Tanner Holt (not pictured) are from Spanish Fork High School. Ashton Moyer is from Salem Hills High. And Clark Stephens (not pictured) is from Maple Mountain High. Also pictured are previous Spanish Fork High graduates and BYU students John Christiansen, C.J. Lewis, Shane Monson, and team leader Chris Padilla, and UVU student Branen Startup. CastleWave was voted one of Utah Valley’s top 25 companies that have been in business less than 5 years. They were also named one of Utah’s top 100 emerging elite companies. They provide Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for large companies, most of which are on the East Coast. CastleWave was originally started with a budget of $5,000 to prove the points in a book called “Bootstrap Business” which was written by Rich Christiansen and Ron Porter, both of Spanish Fork. Rich has said: “these students have developed skills that most college graduates do not have. They are smart and not afraid to try new technologies and ideas. You watch out for these young men. They will change the world!” For meeting their goals, they were recently awarded a trip to Las Vegas.
