Web Design & Development
Websites Built to Grow Your Business
From first sketch to fully coded launch, I design and develop sites that look sharp, load fast and turn visitors into customers.
My Approach
Rooted in print, fluent in pixels
My design roots reach back to magazine layout and print production in the late 1990s, well before responsive layouts existed. That foundation still shapes the work: clear hierarchy, purposeful typography and pages that steer people toward the next click.
Today I build on WordPress, Shopify and ExpressionEngine — and on custom e-commerce platforms when an off-the-shelf option won’t cut it, partnering with specialist developers when a build calls for extra hands. Every build follows current UX/UI conventions and SEO best practices, and every page adapts cleanly from phones to wide desktop screens.
A Good Fit For
Is this the right gig for you?
- Established businesses that have outgrown a template or DIY site
- Online stores ready to replatform or modernize their storefront
- Organizations that need a site staff can easily update themselves
- Companies whose current site looks fine but doesn’t generate leads or sales
- Teams that want design, SEO and marketing handled under one roof

Process
How a project comes together
01
Listen
I start with your goals, your customers and your numbers — what’s working now, what isn’t and what success should look like.
02
Compose
A clear plan: site map and wireframes, campaign structure, keyword targets or email flows, with an estimate and schedule you can hold me to.
03
Rehearse
Design, build and test. Every page, ad and template is checked on real devices and wired into analytics before it goes public.
04
Perform
Launch, measure and refine. I watch the data, report in plain English and keep tuning for better results.
FAQ
Web design questions
Will my website work on mobile devices?
Yes. Every site is designed mobile-first and tested on phones, tablets and desktop browsers before launch.
Can I update the site myself?
Yes. WordPress sites are built with the block editor so you can edit text, images and pages without touching code — and I’ll show you how.
Do you help with content and photos?
I can write or polish your copy with SEO in mind, source licensed imagery and organize what you already have — and bring in a partner photographer when original photography is the better fit.
Can you keep my existing domain and email?
Yes. I’ll connect your current domain or transfer it, and make sure your email keeps working through the switch.
