About

I have been working full time in the field of web design and online marketing for almost 6 years. That is about how old this site is. It is where I show y’all what I do!

What I do

I primarily build and write the words for websites. Web content today is a constant pandering to ruthless readers who will just skim if you let them - boring brochure-talk won't do anymore. I do things like Photoshop, copywriting, coding, taking and editing photos, and generally doing whatever it takes to make everything come together. I am a contractor and my business website is called: Increase Interactive - if you are interested in getting a website or learning about them - check it out! Have a good day.
