Here are some answers to common questions about my process, services, and what it’s like to work together. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, feel free to reach out.
I design websites and digital products in Figma & Paper with a focus on human-first research & design.
I develop custom fully responsive websites and interactive digital experiences on various platforms. Please see platform FAQ for more info.
I implement SEO and AEO best practices directly into every build, ensuring your site is structured for visibility from the start.
Accessibility is considered throughout my design and development process, not treated as an add-on.
I account for semantic structure, keyboard usability, contrast, responsive behavior, motion preferences, and other common accessibility considerations from the start.
For projects with specific accessibility or compliance requirements, I can also provide more extensive testing and implementation support.
I also support integrations with tools like HubSpot, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and other third-party platforms to help track performance, manage leads, and extend site functionality.
I work across a range of website platforms and development stacks, and recommend the option that best fits the project rather than forcing every site into the same system.
Webflow
Ideal for marketing websites, CMS-driven sites, landing pages, and teams that want a visual editing experience with strong design flexibility.Astro +
Astro + Sanity
A strong option for fast, custom-coded websites that need a flexible headless CMS, structured content, and more control over performance and frontend development.
Framer
Well suited for design-forward marketing sites, startups, landing pages, and projects that benefit from rapid design and development in one platform.
WordPress
Useful for content-heavy websites, established WordPress ecosystems, custom integrations, or projects that need to remain within an existing WordPress environment.
Shopify
My primary option for dedicated ecommerce projects that require product management, payments, inventory, and a mature commerce ecosystem.
Squarespace & Wix
Good options for smaller websites, straightforward content needs, and businesses that prioritize simple ongoing editing and maintenance.
I take a human-first approach to design, using discovery, research, and direct project context to guide UX decisions, visual direction, and implementation.
I use AI to extend my development process while keeping every build hands-on. Tools like Webflow’s MCP server and MCP integrations for other platforms let me connect AI directly to the tools I work in, significantly speeding up development, updates, and troubleshooting.
Everything AI assists with is reviewed, refined, and tested before it becomes part of the finished project. The same standards for quality, accessibility, and performance apply throughout.
I work across a wide range of industries and project types from landing pages and marketing websites to complex, CMS-driven platforms and enterprise-level website builds.
My experience spans real estate, eCommerce, education, healthcare, insurance, legal, fashion, automotive, and technology, as well as SaaS platforms, venture-backed companies, influencers, entertainment brands and more.
I’ve worked on large-scale projects like Linktree and TripAdvisor, venture firms such as Scout VC, Universities, AI tools like Wrangle and Google Gemini, and Government campaign initiatives.
Yes. I design mobile app interfaces, web applications, SaaS platforms, dashboards, internal tools, and other digital products.
App design projects can include user flows, wireframes, UI design, interactive prototypes, and reusable design systems.
Yes. I design and develop custom interactions, transitions, scroll effects, hover states, micro-interactions, and more advanced animated experiences that support the overall UX rather than adding motion purely for decoration.
I can handle the full process from interaction concepts and prototypes through front-end implementation, including custom JavaScript and animation development.
I build SEO and answer engine optimization foundations into each website from the beginning. This includes semantic heading structure, indexable content, metadata, internal linking, descriptive image text, structured data where appropriate, accessibility, performance, and technical crawl checks.
I take on all types of website work, from small edits and landing pages to full-scale complex CMS-driven website builds.
All work is handled directly by me, nothing is outsourced. This ensures clear communication, faster turnaround, and consistent quality throughout the entire project.
Yes. I’m open to working with in-house teams, agencies, and white-label partners on an ongoing or project basis.
I can work directly with your team or behind the scenes under your agency’s brand, depending on how you prefer to structure the relationship.
All projects are defined upfront with a clear contract outlining scope, deliverables, timelines, and pricing, so there’s complete transparency around what’s being delivered.
All websites I build are designed to require zero to minimal ongoing maintenance.
Hiring a professional means your website is built correctly from the start.
While DIY solutions can get something online, they often lead to limitations, inconsistencies, and costly fixes later. A professional ensures your site is not only visually strong, but also technically sound, easy to manage, and built to support your business as it grows.
In most cases, investing in doing it right the first time saves both time and money long-term.
I currently live in Los Angeles, CA, originally from Pennsylvania. I made the move to Los Angeles in 2020.
I offer ongoing website management through a monthly retainer. This includes updates, CMS management, performance improvements, and general support. Retainers are non-refundable. Please contact me for more details.
