Websites that Work
When I choose to work with a client, I invest in the well-being of their business. That means I go the extra mile to provide quality advice and work with you to achieve your goals.
Prime Painting X, LLC
A paint contractor in Aurora, Colo. was starting up his own company. He had already done extensive research on branding for paint companies, and brought a lot of ideas to the table. He was already working on a logo, business cards, and t-shirts with another local business. I worked with him to refine his logo, but I can't take credit for the design. Since budget was important, I recommended a free website platform, and free fonts. I wrote his website and his tagline, and I also added his business to Google Maps.
Luis' Painting & Remodeling
A paint contractor in Aurora, Colo. needed help with his marketing, branding, and advertising strategy. He had already worked with a marketing firm, he wasn’t seeing results, and he needed help making his business easier for customers to understand. I combined his two websites, designed him a custom logo and business cards, and reworked his AdWords campaign.
Community Management Specialists (CMS)
An outdated business website in Lakewood, Colo. was reimagined to better reflect the company's culture and values. Requests for proposals increased following the launch of the new website.
Tyndall Green II HOA
An outdated HOA website in Aurora, Colo. was given new life with an updated, mobile-compatible design and robust features to make community administration easier. Additional services included writing news articles and community emails, and a new welcome packet.
Bad Rock Artwork
A basic Etsy storefront for a watercolor artist in Kalispell, Mont. Original artworks were reproduced as fine art prints and note cards. Shop setup, product listings, photo illustrations, logo design, and business cards helped get this small business off the ground. The platform allows them to accept credit card payments at craft fairs.
Main Line Precious Metals
This business owner in Ardmore, Pa. came to me with his own web design. He was preparing to close his physical storefront and he wanted help with technical work launching his new website. We collaborated on general design recommendations, a slogan, and adjustments for mobile compatibility.
Other Work
When I was salaried employee and my manager had a larger budget to work with, I had the opportunity to really have some fun with print collateral.
Web App Brochure
2008 - I created this rack card to support the launch of a project management website. myDuncan was a game changer and gave the company a competitive edge in the industry. The card was collateral for project managers and sales representatives to support conversations with prospects and customers.
Symposium Magazine Article & Mailer Announcements
2007 - I designed this magazine spread for the Duncan Debrief in collaboration with a coworker to announce the company's annual "Intelli-Conference." The design followed the format of the company's popular Duncan Intelligence newsletters. I also created a matching tri-fold mailer.
"The Poem"
2006 - I wrote and designed this magazine spread to close Duncan Aviation's 50th anniversary celebrations. I stopped my car on a gravel road at sundown to get this photo. The next day I photoshopped in a Bel Air, and overlaid a contrail in the sky. I didn't know that a draft of the article was leaked to the service teams. I was told grown men cried. They called it "The Poem."
