My Story

I've come a long way from creating websites in Netscape Navigator for elementary school competitions.

We won't talk about how long ago that was, but a common thread throughout my life since those early days at a computer screen has been the desire to marry the analytical and the creative, data and aesthetic, form and function to create something beautiful that works well.

On the journey, I've also made a few detours along the road working in real estate, insurance customer service, hospitality, public education, business administration, romance writing, horse racing, digital design, and even the mining industry as a site clerk in an Australian outback town with more crocodiles than people (there's not enough space here for all those stories), dabbling with a few different forms of entrepreneurship along the way.

But it wasn't until I had my daughter and left the classroom as a high school English teacher that I realized how truly important it was for every woman to have a business to call her own. One that doesn't penalize you for nights of sleep regression, a week-long child illness, or not wanting to miss the every day magical moments. 

It was in building a website for my own online business as virtual assistant with an infant at home that I fell back in love with the world of web design and discovered how powerful a beautiful, well-designed site could be in helping run an efficient, productive, and successful business.

Because even though the specific platforms and entire internet has changed since the mid-90s, I've found that people still largely want the same thing when they're looking for a service or product: connection, value, and results.

And that's what the websites I design deliver.
