From the Dawn of the Web to Your Digital Doorstep
In 1994, when the World Wide Web was a new frontier, I built my first website. It was a time of immense possibility, driven by the belief that technology could connect people and organizations in powerful new ways. For the more than 30 years since, I haven’t just watched the internet evolve; I’ve been in the trenches building it, line by line, for some of the most recognized names in technology, research, and healthcare.
My journey has taken me through the development of complex web applications for giants like AT&T, Cisco, and IBM. I’ve engineered solutions for world-renowned academic institutions like Johns Hopkins University and North Carolina State University. I’ve contributed to platforms that millions of people rely on, including WebMD. This work taught me invaluable lessons about security, scalability, and the relentless pursuit of quality. It instilled a discipline for building digital tools that are not just functional, but flawless.
A New Focus: Bringing Enterprise Expertise to Main Street
After decades of working within large-scale corporate and academic environments, I realized my true passion wasn’t just solving complex technical challenges. It was using that hard-won expertise to empower the organizations that form the backbone of our communities. I saw that the small businesses, local churches, and dedicated non-profits who work tirelessly to serve others often had to settle for second-rate digital solutions. They were underserved by an industry that offered them a frustrating choice: an impersonal, expensive agency or an under-equipped freelancer.
I founded this firm to bridge that gap. My mission is to bring the same level of technical excellence, strategic thinking, and unwavering reliability once reserved for Fortune 500 companies directly to you.
The Philosophy of One: Why I Build Every Website Myself
In an industry built on outsourcing and delegation, I have made a conscious and resolute choice to work differently. I am the sole developer, strategist, and support contact for every client I partner with. This is not a limitation; it is my greatest strength and your greatest advantage.
Your vision cannot be outsourced. Your goals cannot be delegated to a contractor you’ll never meet. True quality, consistency, and accountability come from a single, dedicated point of craftsmanship. When you partner with me, you are forming a relationship built on a simple, powerful promise: the person who strategizes with you on the phone is the same person meticulously writing the code, optimizing the images, and monitoring your server at 2 AM. There is no “B-team.” There are no communication breakdowns. There is only a shared commitment to getting it right.
Your Collaborative Partner in a Digital World
This philosophy extends to how we will work together. I believe the best results come from a true partnership. The process is designed to be transparent, collaborative, and empowering for you.
It begins with a conversation, not a contract. We start with a deep dive into your world—your challenges, your audience, your definition of success. Throughout the build, you have a “backstage pass” to the development site, allowing you to see the progress and provide feedback along the way. This isn’t my project; it’s our project. My role is to be your expert guide, your technical powerhouse, and your dedicated partner, ensuring the final result not only meets your expectations but exceeds them.
