Given my experience with helping small business owners get started, a couple friends from Utah asked me to start a design agency with them. We aren't very good salesmen, but it's a fun side gig.

In an effort to foster good client relationships in this role, I wrote some eBooks tailored to their needs. Click the covers to download them.

Becky wanted her site to help her make it to the big stage, so I gave her a big design. I reached outside the bluegrass industry to find inspiration from country, pop, and hip-hop musician websites. This helps her stand out in her niche market.

The Downtown Benton Association has been slowly growing through word of mouth marketing for several years, but wanted to branch out into the digital space. One of their members tried to make a website for them, but it loaded very slow and they wouldn't share the URL with anyone. I decreased their page load speed, optimized their landing pages for SEO, and updated their website design.

Life

For the last 6 years I've worked as a project manager on $2.3B worth of Government programs and a number of large scale construction projects. During this time, I fell in love with graphic design and website design and devlopment. I have been designing and developing digital experiences on the side for brands, businesses, and start-ups for about 5 years but I'm ready to take it full-time. A creative front-end developer at heart, my passion is constructing elegant, engaging, and easy-to-use digital interfaces through well-crafted code or popular CMSs.
