About
After meeting 15 years ago, Paul and Aanand set out on independent consulting careers within their domains of expertise. More and more, they found they were partnering on projects to provide customers a complete set of IoT development skills. Woody Creek was born in 2021 out of their desire to provide a full stack IoT consulting firm to help customers design, deploy, and scale their IoT systems.
