Company Description

I specialize in custom website design & development with a focus on the WordPress content management platform. I combine WordPress with Bootstrap to create simple, attractive and user-friendly mobile-responsive websites. I became interested in website development as a student of English Lit at the University of Alberta, and over the next 18 years, taught myself HTML, CSS, Photoshop and Illustrator, PHP programming and WordPress custom theming. Prior to becoming a professional web developer, I spent 7 years in marketing communications, primarily as a copywriter in the IT sector.In addition to website design & development, I also dabble in other creative services, including print design & layout, copywriting & editing, social media management, events and PR/promotions. My clients include political campaigns, corporations, small businesses, independent professionals, community organizations and larger agencies who outsource smaller web projects.I am active in Edmonton's tech and freelancing communities, and have served as a panelist/presenter at several conferences and events, including WordCamp Edmonton, iMedia and outreach events with CAPS at the U of A. I'm very involved as an instructor and mentor with the Edmonton chapter of Ladies Learning Code, a cross-Canada non-profit aimed at empowering women with applied programming and technical skills.
