ABOUT ME
CSS specialist, Web Designer / Developer Hybrid, Agency Owner
CSS specialist, Web Designer / Developer Hybrid, Agency Owner

Freelancer / agency owner building beautiful, engaging websites and web applications for businesses of all sizes.

CSS is my specialty, though JavaScript is a close second. I'm passionate about translating good design fundamentals onto the web, and can get lost for days talking about grids, typography, and image composition (and how to get the most out of those choices with web technologies).

As an entirely self-taught developer, I love the opportunity to share some of that knowledge and experience with others on similar paths. Let's work together!

My career began around the same time as responsive design principles hit the mainstream. I've "grown up" as a developer with responsive design, and have been building websites that perform on devices of all sizes for a decade. I believe simplicity is key, and emphasize a mobile-first, progressively-enhanced methodology when writing styles.

Starting with some simple jQuery, and eventually moving into modern Javascript frameworks like Vue and React, I love the possibilities that even simple JavaScript brings to the web, and the promise of a unified frontend / backend language. I love the process of moving pixels around in an engaging and lifelike way, and experiment often with JavaScript-based animations via HTML Canvas.

Ryze Renewables is an energy company with a groundbreaking process for creating low-carbon fuels from agricultural byproducts. They came to us because they needed to quickly establish an online presence that communicated their core values and capabilities to potential partners in the renewable fuels sector. We worked closely with their team to refine their messaging for presentation in a web context, and to establish a bright, natural aesthetic that evokes their mission of reducing emissions and fighting climate change with better fuels.

Many years ago, Malibu Farm was our first client. Since then, we've have had the unique opportunity to grow with their business as they transformed from a small local cooking blog to one of the hottest restaurant brands in Los Angeles (with new locations opening around the world). Throughout this ongoing growth process we were challenged to grow their web presence for each new location, while staying true to the core brand. From holiday event ticket sales, to e-commerce opportunities, to rapidly change stemming from the Covid-19 outbreak, we have continued to manage this complexity and allow the owners and managers to focus on running the business.
