Creative Direction & Strategy
A blueprint for your website that addresses key goals, ways to engage your audience and structure your content in a way that's intuitive.
Website Development
We'll build a site that is uniquely yours and looks good on any screen size. The site will also be fully editable, so you can edit things on your own once we're done.
I’ll set up everything for you, including the domain transfer, so you don't have to worry about the technical stuff.
Training Walk Through
Before things go live, we'll walk through the site and review how to manage + edit everything.
After you launch, I'll be available for any quick fixes you need or extra questions you have.
Add Ons
Some features such as an online store require a lot more time, so I’ll charge extra depending on your needs.
If your site requires special pages outside of the 5 page allotment, I’ll add on a cost per page, depending how demanding they’ll be to implement.
The process
Working Together
Insight
After you sign your contract + pay your deposit, I’ll send over a welcome packet and questionnaire for you to fill out. In the questionnaire, we’ll be thinking about your goals, your audience, and all the things that set your business apart from the rest.
Strategy
We’ll outline your project goals, ways to connect with your audience and visual inspiration to guide us through the design process. Basically, this step helps us make sure we’re on the same page before I start sketching concepts.
Create
I’ll present my 2 strongest concepts for the website, each one highlighting a different aspect of your business. From here, we’ll narrow it down to 1 concept that feel right + would connect the most with your audience.
Refine
At this stage, I’ll present a refined version of the site concept that we chose, build out the pages, and dive deeper to finalize our site styles & features. This is where we test drive how the site would work in real life + see what aspects feel strongest. If we still need to refine, we can.
Launch
Next, we’ll set up your site billing, connect your domain (whether you already have one or need one) and I’ll show you how to edit the site, recording my tutorial for your later reference. Any final tweaks can be made here.
Thrive
Once ready, we’ll take the site live and then double check our links and functionality. I’ll also do an SEO checklist to make sure the site starts coming up in search engines.

I really appreciated our conversations about what my goals are. He listened deeply to everything and his reflections made me confident he fully understood me and where to take my website. He did! I love it and I know it is already helping me to upscale my career."

Frequently Asked Questions
Are You Booking New Clients?
Yes! I’m currently booking out website, branding, and branding + website projects. If interested, please have a look at my services page and send an inquiry through my contact page. I’m excited to hear from you!
How Do Payments Work?
Working with a designer is a big investment, so I offer simple payment plans. First, you'll pay a 40% deposit to reserve your spot in my schedule. From there, we'll schedule the rest into 1 or 2 payments. Payments can be made by bank transfer, debit/credit, or Paypal.
How Soon Can We Start?
My availability varies throughout the year, but I typically book projects 1-3 months in advance. To get an idea of current availability, fill out my client inquiry form. We can talk details over the phone afterwards.
Do you work with web platforms other than Squarespace?
I occasionally do Wordpress for more complex projects but adore Squarespace and think it’s a stylish and user-friendly option for clients to self-manage. I love playing with Squarespace, and I think you will too!
Do You Offer A La Carte Options?
My intention is to provide clients with a cohesive web development and/or brand design service, so I mainly offer all-inclusive project packages. For some minor things I’ll consider work at an hourly rate.
Have a different question?
No worries, working with a designer is a process and there's a lot that you need to know before taking the leap! If you have any other questions about my services or process, I’m happy to answer them. You can send me questions via email.
