What my clients are saying

We hired Melissa to update/develop our existing website and make it fresh and informational. Melissa was wonderful to work with. She listened to what we wanted and provided us with professional guidance and direction when needed. If she did not know how to do something she sought out the answers and always followed through. Throughout every step of the process she guided and directed us, taking what we imagined our website to be and made it a reality. Her professionalism, knowledge, expertise and customer service is excellent. I would encourage anyone who wants to either update or create a personal or business web site to speak with Melissa. She is awesome.

Web design firms often fall into two categories: either they do custom work but charge a pretty penny for the privilege, or they charge less but they use templates that mean your website will look similar to that of their last customer. Your marketing materials should reflect your identity or that of your company, and it should appeal to your customers. As a freelance web designer, I will work with you to create marketing products that are customized to you and is attractive to your customers.
