TL;DR: I am a web developer that works with creative entrepreneurs to set their business up for online success.
I make websites.
Professionally, I’m a front-end developer and specialize in custom WordPress and Shopify theme development. From your “why” to your “how the hell do I build this?” it’s my goal to support you on your journey to represent your full self and take back control of your website.
Who I work with:
I support artists, solo-preneurs, witches, astrologers, healers, writers and more… the creatively-inclined business owners that want to love and maintain their own web presence.
We’d be a great fit if you are:
- Respectful and committed – I like working with individuals that are respectful of my skills and value the process. I don’t haggle over price or work on rushed projects.
- Someone with big ideas without the tech know-how – That’s what I’m here for! I can help advise you on which behind-the-scenes tech is best for your business situation & then integrate it.
- Run a business that is compassion and community-oriented – This can wear many different outfits. Do you contribute a % of earnings to your favourite cause? Fight inequality? Support local? Is your biz itself self-care in nature? Working on projects that invigorate others energizes me.
I’ve talked to a lot of business owners who haven’t updated their website due to fear or technical frustrations.
Does this sound familiar? Your website is one of your most important tools… Let’s get started! First I’ll send you a scoping survey to get an idea of where you’re currently at. Then we’ll schedule a virtual coffee to discuss your goals & how I can best help you achieve them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Project turnaround times depend on the amount of work required on a specific project, as well as client response times. Typically, most website builds take ~6-8 weeks. I outline the due dates in our proposal so you know when to expect things.
The sites I build are clean, fast, accessible and effective. All sites are standards-compliant, optimized for mobile, fully responsive and cross-browser compatible.
While excellent in replicating and bringing designs to life, I’m a front-end developer, not a designer. If you need design AND dev, I have designers I work with that I can invite to join us. Keep in mind this will change your project scope & end cost.
I work with clients on a first-come, first-serve basis to keep an organized schedule and to ensure ample time for each project. That being said, I’m currently booking for mid-fall 2023 so please reach out to start a convo about your project as soon as you’re ready.
I generally work under a sprint system under which is a fixed rate per unit of time (usually a week). This allows for check-in’s and approval through the process and allow for additional changes (and sprints) to be added when/if necessary.
It depends! Custom development on the majority of sites I work on starts around $10K but other factors that the final price would depend on are: ready-to-dev designs, number of templates, the presence of a shop or blog, and any other special functionality to set your site apart from others.
Yes! I keep a certain amount of time monthly available for my special retainer clients. Contact me with your particulars to see if there’s available room in my schedule.
