How I Work

Most agencies start with design.
I start with structure.

1

Discovery

Brand system extraction, copywriting, project brief. I understand the business before I touch a pixel.

2

Design & Build

HTML prototype for your approval before any build work begins. Then a hand-coded, responsive site tested at every breakpoint.

3

Launch & Handoff

SEO setup, performance testing, deployment, and documentation your team can actually use. No mystery black box.

  • Discovery call + intake form
  • Brand system extraction
  • Copywriting assist or review
  • Project brief with scope + timeline
  • HTML prototype for sign-off
  • Responsive build (4 breakpoints)
  • Client feedback round
  • Revisions before launch
  • SEO + meta tags + schema
  • Performance optimization
  • Deployment + domain setup
  • Handoff documentation

What I don't do.

Honest boundaries save everyone time. If your project needs something on this list, I'll help you find someone who does it well.

  • WordPress plugin development (I build with them, I don't code them from scratch)
  • Enterprise product design (I'm not a Figma-to-dev-handoff product designer)
  • SEO-only engagements (SEO is part of a build, not a standalone service)
  • Ongoing content writing (I'll write initial copy, not monthly blog posts)
  • Logo-only projects under $1,500 (not worth the context-switching)

Submit the intake form and I'll review your project within 48 hours. If it's a fit, I'll reach out to schedule a discovery call.
