I'm a full-time web design/web development freelancer, and I've been creating websites for 10+ years now. I enjoy putting together the mix of technology, interactivity, content quality, and creativity that modern web projects require.
My personal emphasis is on websites that exude professionalism—classy graphics and top-notch interactivity, engaging your clients or customers by providing a superior web experience.
Most of the larger websites I design are editable by my clients. This means you can add text, images, or video at your convenience, without knowing HTML and without needing web design skills. I also provide video-based training and training for staff members upon request.
Having worked on several professional web teams as well as on my own, developing websites, creating interactive Adobe Flash animations, and designing HTML emails, I can blend with your team or provide my own resources for making your web project successful.
