About Me

I first began designing and developing for the web back in 2004, and since then I have worked with a variety of studios, agencies and companies from across Canada. Since August of 2009 I have been freelancing full-time, and I continue to work with many of the same agencies and companies as clients.


I am proficient in the Adobe Creative Suite series as well as a variety of Content Management Systems and Search Engine Optimization techniques. While working with a new company to design or revamp their website, I try to work as closely with the client as possible to understand the nature of their business, and their goals for the website. I possess strong communication skills, and I believe that effective visual conceptualization is as important as technical web design skills.

Revamp Your Brand in 4 Steps

Welcome to my portfolio! Please take the time to look at some of my recent work to the left, or fill out the form below to receive an instant quote for your website. Enjoy!

Step 1: Let's Get Started

So you're looking for a new web designer? Well, you've come to the right place! I create valid, search engine friendly websites that look great and generate results.

By following the steps below you can get an idea of what your website will cost. It'll only take a couple of minutes, and I'll get back to you within 48 hours with a quote.

How many pages is your site?
When do you need your site? In Days:
Do you want a Content Management System (CMS)?

CMS is a software system that provides website authoring, collaboration, and administration tools designed to allow users with little knowledge of web programming languages or markup languages to create and manage website content with relative ease. A robust CMS provides the foundation for collaboration, offering users the ability to manage documents and output for multiple author editing and participation.

Step 2: Site Options

Do you need a site design?

Some individuals already have designs made in Photoshop. If you do not have a site designed I will design a custom website layout. You will receive two rounds of review/requests. View our portfolio to the left.

What is your sites primary colors?:


Please share with us some websites that you like:


Special instructions:
Extra Options

These are some extra options that may be go along way towards enhancing your site & your R.O.I.

Step 3: Widgets

Image Gallery

An image gallery is normally used to display images. See an example

Slide-Show

Slideshow is an option for picture rotations or fades between images. These are currently very popular aross the web. See an example

Lightbox Viewer

If you have a picture gallery and you'd like to view each picture in a pop-up window - then the lightbox add-on will be a perfect solution for you. If you choose this option, we will add JavaScript that makes the page fade out when the lightbox is opened, showing a particular picture. See an example

ShareThis

ShareThis control allows the user to share through social media. See an example


Carousel

If you have a list of rotating items (for example: images or content blocks), we can add JavaScript that will allow scrolling through these items by clicking on the page links (1,2,3) or by clicking on the next/previous buttons. The list of items can rotate automatically as well. See an example


Accordion

Accordion is a great JavaScript feature that allows the revealing of the sub-list of a particular list item with a smooth sliding effect. When one of the sub-lists is revealed - the rest of the items are closed at once. See an example


Custom Forms

Choose this option if you'd like to customize the look of your check-boxes, radio buttons, or select drop down menus according to your designs.


Multi-Tier Fly Out Menu

Indicate if a multi tier fly-out menu should be added. Please note that the price for this option includes standard CSS multi-level menu integration. If you'd like to add any special effects to the menu - please indicate this in the comments box when posting your project and we will send you a quote for implementing extra menu functionality. See an example
