I’m Warren Wilansky (he/him), the President of Plank, a digital agency I co-founded over 25 years ago in 1998. Most of our website design and development work is with leading arts and cultural organizations across North America. Some of our most recent work is with The Canadian Encyclopedia, Ford’s Theatre and Carolina Performing Arts.
A lifelong Montrealer and resident of the historic Mile-End neighbourhood, I take pride in our little corner of the world (and enjoy taking photos of it). While I regularly post about Plank-related things, I also like posting about personal hobbies, interests, and travel.
In addition to timely posts about recent events, I enjoy delving into my archive of objects (like concert tickets and event memorabilia) and personal history (summer camp, early travels and life milestones). So, expect to discover some posts that pre-date this website and the modern internet. While I reserve the right to post about whatever my heart desires, expect to read a lot about Montreal, Travel, Music and Baseball. ⚾
After graduating from Wagar High School in 1988, I spend a few years bouncing between Vanier and Dawson College. I finally graduated from Concordia University with a double major BA in Political Science and Communication Studies. Before founding Plank, I worked as a freelance designer and did some full-time stints at a few digital agencies. The first major project I worked on was a CDROM interactive comic of Leonard Nimoy’s Primortals.
