About me



If you are looking for someone to design you a website with lots of bells and whistles... blinking lights, animations and Flash presentations that take forever to load, Java windows that keep popping up in front of the viewer's eyes, and all the rest of the "totally awesome" stuff you see crammed into other sites....then you are in the wrong place.  I'm sure you will have no problem finding someone who will be more than happy to charge you exorbitant amounts of money to give you all this.  Actually, if that is what you really want, I'll be happy to charge you exorbitant amounts of money to give you all this.... but I don't recommend it.

If, on the other hand, you are looking for someone to create a site for you that is easy to read, quick to load and navigate, and provides the information the viewer is seeking, then you have come to the right place.

I've been designing sites since 1996 and have been through all the new fad designs that came and went.  I try to give each site it's own personality.   I don't have a "set" of backgrounds, templates or "buttons" for you to choose from.  I design each site depending on the nature of the content and try to use colors and graphics that the particular company has been using in it's logo, menus or business stationery.  If I'm designing a personal site, I try to get as much information I can about the person in order to design the site to reflect their personality.

I provide you with a login and password to your site as it is being developed.  This allows you to view the progress and give feedback as the design work is going along.  I find this saves you both time and money, as you can make changes early in the design instead of after the completion.

If you would like to see some of my work, go to my "portfolio" page where I have links to the sites I have designed and maintain.
