My personal website was featured in the book “The Digital Portfolio” back in 2001
I Love Designing Websites.
I know it is truly a passion because I have completely lost track of time designing them, building them, playing around with CSS, and learning how to bring my ideas to life. I started designing for the web way back in 1998, and my love for designing and building websites has never waned. I have done other things like photo retouching and print production, and I even spent five years studying interior design thinking I would transition into a new career. But I kept coming back to web design. When I had a job that was more corporate and less creative, I would make websites in my spare time just for fun. I finally realized that it truly is my happy place, so I went all in. Now I am a UX/UI designer during the day, and make websites for friends and small business clients in my spare time.
Below are a few websites I have recently designed and built. All three are customized Squarespace sites. I used to write my sites by hand, but now I prefer customizing platforms like Squarespace, Wordpress and Shopify.

Olivia Garden
Olivia Garden, best known for their professional hairbrushes and combs, was created in Liège, Belgium, founded on the principles of providing hairdressers with high quality, innovative, beautiful & cutting-edge salon tools. They found themselves losing market share to their competition who were selling their products online, so they hired me to bring their stores into the digital age and develop an online store for them. I chose Shopify and built their first online store.
