Website Design & Development

Prices start at $4,000

If you don’t have a web presence, you probably need one. Whether that’s a daunting task or you just don’t have time to deal with it, I’m here to help.

I built my first website in middle school and it featured boy band background music and falling stars. I can help deliver a cohesive digital voice to your business or non-profit - falling stars are optional.

Services include but are not limited to: Squarespace, Shopify and Tailwind. I can also offer virtual or on-site training sessions so you can maintain your website going forward.

Services include but aren’t limited to - digitizing an existing logo, revitalizing an original logo while prioritizing its original intent, creating a cohesive color palette, brand voice and marketing materials.

Experience & Software Design

Audit prices start at $100

If a full-time Product Designer is a luxury your organization doesn’t have yet, there are ways I can offer support without being integrated to your development team during the workday.

An experience audit of your system and pain-points documentation is an inexpensive but impactful place to start. I will provide 3-5 focus areas, along with their impacts. I’ll also provide an action plan based on your team’s bandwidth or propose alternate methods if you can’t address the issues with your in-house team.

*Monthly retainer options are also available.

My Design Process

  • A detailed digital brainstorming or planning board with multiple sections, containing numerous multicolored sticky notes in pink, blue, green, yellow, and black, organized into categories such as Data, Spend, Ops, and Items to Discuss. The sections include subcategories and lists of items for discussion, with some notes marked or highlighted, and small icons or avatars indicating comments or participants.

    Understanding

    Spending adequate time in the problem space is essential. I crave truly understanding the problem we’re trying to solve, why we’re solving it and how it will deliver measurable value. It’s also important for me to understand the existing processes and pain-points to make sure we’re not about to repeat any past mistakes.

  • Flowchart diagram with various colored boxes and arrows representing a process or decision tree.

    Brainstorming

    Whether this is achieved as a team with a whiteboard and sticky notes, alone in my FigJam or even sketching out loose concepts in my sketchbook, keeping things ‘messy’ at the start allows space for more ideas to flourish before committing to a path forward.

  • Screenshot of a website interface titled 'New Quote.' The page includes navigation links ('Home,' 'New Quote,' 'Orders,' 'Customers,' 'Samples,' 'Products') at the top, and a greeting 'Welcome back, Sara.' The main section displays tabs labeled 'Boxes,' 'Strapping,' 'Bags,' 'Stretch Film,' 'Core,' and 'Pallets.' The active tab is 'Strapping.' Below are sections detailing 'Strapping Material' and 'Strapping Width & Core Size' with placeholder text, circular icons labeled 'Width 1,' 'Width 2,' 'Width 3,' and square icons labeled 'Core Size 1,' 'Core Size 2,' 'Core Size 3.' A 'Next Step' button is at the bottom right corner.

    Creating

    After we’ve all aligned on a solution or two worth exploring, I start designing. Pencil and paper, flowcharts, wireframes, screens and prototypes, there’s a lot of creating and undoing until a cohesive vision is achieved.

    Iterating

    Any job is dangerous when done in isolation and that’s especially true when designing software for someone else to use regularly. It’s important to work fast to get something out the door and then use feedback from real users to make improvements in real time.
