About Me.
The life of a boston web designer doesn’t stop but here’s a split second of it.
How I Started
For as long as I can remember I was always doing some form of art, whether it be drawing, painting or even gingerbread houses. Throughout school I was taking all the Art classes a student could possibly take — art history, photography, sketching, anything creative was for me.
In came the computer and I was instantly fascinated. I enjoyed the technical aspect of the computer and it provided another medium for art. So when time came to choose my career path, it only seemed natural to mix the two and become a Web Designer.
What I’m Up To
I’m currently an Interface Designer at Involution Studios — an award-winning software and product design shop. We've got a great list of clients like Apple, McAfee and Oracle and some great apps to show for it. Our studio in Arlington, MA is the bomb but don't just take my word for it, drop by and check it out (I double-dare ya).
I freelance too, (which consists of nights and weekends) as a Boston Web Designer for clients that range from Ad Agencies, Marketing Firms, Non-Profits, Startups and B2B companies. If you want to get in touch you can always shoot me an email.
Why Hire Me
I make websites that look beautiful and work across major browsers but my true gift is to reveal and create opportunities for driving business to my clients. I do this by getting to know their business in and out and applying my online knowledge and experience to improving their bottom line. In the end, I deliver results, not files.
My success relies heavily on my clients success, so every project must meet high standards to achieve the desired results. While following those high standards I have achieved a proven track record for creating results which can include increasing: leads, product sales, traffic, repeat customers or email subscriptions.
If you want to improve your online strategy or want a new website, feel free to get in touch.
