websites

As a website designer and developer, my passion lies in crafting distinctive online experiences using Elementor. I specialize in creating custom websites that authentically represent your brand while meeting its unique requirements. Whether you prefer a fully customized design or are open to leveraging templates, I prioritize creating websites that not only captivate but also resonate with your audience. My goal is to ensure your online presence not only stands out but also delivers a seamless user experience, effectively showcasing the essence and strengths of your brand.

*CAUTION this is a special way of presenting websites! You can navigate within the embedded websites as a normal website. To scroll down this page, keep your cursor off of the embedded site windows.

Trinity Yard School

This website design project was a complete redesign for a non-profit school in Ghana, West Africa. I transformed the site from a static, repetitive, and hard to navigate site, to one that is animated, dynamic, and intuitive. At the same time, I maintained much of the sites layout for their existing patrons.

Their donation portal turned from a one-time donation PayPal button to a  customizable donation interface with the ability to pay via credit card or PayPal and to select various options for one time or recurring donations.

I also created a new form of income for the school with a print-on-demand drop-shipping store and designed all of their custom branded merchandise.

Yogic Chai

This project turned a homemade eCommerce store into a professional modern brand. This elegant one-page site reflects the quality of Yogic Chai’s award winning products, giving a sense of confidence to their potential patrons. Yogic Chai’s new modern logo and branding colors will help them standout from the crowd and be recognized. By creating both a positive and negative shape logo it allows you to use your logo on both light and dark backgrounds. The clean lines of vector images are a must for all logos which gives your brand the professional identity it deserves.

Ovens DIY

I made this niche website design for my oven business. I have taught how to build clay ovens for seven years and now that I have moved to Switzerland, I needed a platform to showcase my expertise. My long-term plan is for this site to also be an affiliate, helping oven kit companies sell their ovens. This website features a merchandise shop, a services shop, a forum, and a blog.

Using Elementor Pro I have the ability to create my own custom templates with dynamic content. I used this feature for the blogs, a new post will automaticly take the featured image and create the dynamic intro you see when you click on a post. I also used it for the related topics that you see at the end each post. Elementor Pro is very powerful and quite easy to use if you are wanting to manage your own sites content.

Rory Jackson Art

This minimalist Fine Art Gallery styled site is the home to a large portfolio of oil paintings by the painter Rory Jackson of Vermont. Some of the interesting features of this site are content protection with watermarks + right click protection and a custom eCommerce shop.

Christine Detrick Art

This was a site I created for a fine artist who only had an Instagram account to show her work. The goal was to create a site with a high-end curated gallery feel. The outcome is a dynamic site displaying her work in categories that appeal to different target audiences, as well as an embedded Instagram feed. The visual simplicity of the site complements her work giving her a more professional appeal to prospect clients.

Green Mountain School of Yoga

This website design project was a complete redesign for a Yoga school in Vermont. I transformed the very bland outdated HTML site to a sleek highly functioning modern site.

Their essays section turned from a plain text formatted  display to a dynamic blog with images and interactive content. I turned their mail order form “store” into a  easy to use online shop where people could purchase their books via credit card or PayPal.
