Independent web design & development

Websites that are easy to use, easy to own, and built to last.

I’m a solo developer working with small businesses and creators. No account managers, no layers of handoff—just clear communication and careful craft.

What I focus on

  • Design you can maintain. Layouts that stay readable on phones and desktops, with typography and spacing that feel intentional—not generic.
  • Performance & clarity. Fast-loading pages, sensible structure, and content that visitors can actually find.
  • Code you’re not locked into. Straightforward HTML, CSS, and JavaScript where it helps—easy to hand off or extend later if you want.

How we’d work together

  1. 1

    Discovery

    Short call or email: goals, audience, timeline, and what success looks like for you.

  2. 2

    Build

    Design and development in focused passes, with check-ins so you’re never guessing what’s shipping.

  3. 3

    Launch & handoff

    Go live together, walk through how things work, and leave you with docs you can actually use.
