I've joined forces with another web developer to build a new start-up web design, development and consultation business. A big part of my focus is on finding the right solution for clients, honing a strategy that balances budget with needs, and teaching clients that "true budget" is a combination of time, effort and money. When I take on a client, I consider it an ongoing project even after the main project is done and will touch base periodically to follow up. We have trusted partners that we work with for additional services like web and email hosting, print design, online advertising, and social media gurus that a client will need as they grow their business. We are continually growing our network to offer more trusted connections for our clients as they look for services.Our direct services are web design and development (CMS setup and configuration, HTML, CSS, JS and other client side/UI design and development), content review and modification for SEO and Accessibility, user statistics setup and analysis, and of course, strategy for an overall online presence.

I started developing websites in early 1999, and have been creating them professionally for clients since 2000. Since then I have done more sites and consultations than I can count. No matter how solid my main gig might be, I have found that independent work and teaching is a good way to cement in knowledge and escape circular thinking. As a result, I have had experience with a variety of platforms and languages to which I might not have otherwise been exposed. While my strengths and interests are in user interface and client- side development, I have also done work with server side code (PHP, .NET), APIs, and databases (specifically as used for CMSs, like MySQL, and quite a lot of interest in and study of MongoDB, if not any practical application just yet). I have put together many WordPress sites and have had experience with many other content management systems and e-commerce platforms like WP-eCommerce and BigCommerce.
