Howdy
I built my 1st website, all hand-coded, in 1999; I’ve built websites professionally since 2006. My graphic design experience has deep roots — I earned my BFA in 1984.
I love building websites, and I take a methodical approach to design and implementation to assure you receive a high quality product. I follow a four phase process to ensure customer satisfaction and project efficiency:
- Discovery phase — during which I plan everything clearly
- Creative phase — in which all visual elements are designed & approved
- Technical phase — during which the visual elements are brought to life, and finally
- A review and testing phase
