Services

I am pleased to offer end-to-end web design and development, based on standards compliant & browser friendly technologies.

My design and layout skills are built on a foundation of fine art and illustration disciplines, and I’ve taught myself and learned on-the-job the set of programming skills I rely on to carry a layout into a clean, attractive, and reliable user experience.

Although I tend to work more on the web, I enjoy working in print when the opportunity arises.

Rates

When I work on contract for an agency or an established business, I aim at $35/hr. I am known to be flexible on this for consistent ongoing opportunities.

When I’m working with smaller clients, I tend to work on a project basis, adhering in degrees to a package pricing structure you can view here.

There is always room to negotiate, and to discuss ideas. If for no other reason than to get a second opinion or a frame of reference when pricing and selecting the designer for your project, I encourage you to shoot me an email via the form below. Let’s twalkabouddit.
