What I'm Doing

I love what I do. I take great pride in what I do. And I can't do something halfway, three-quarters, nine-tenths. If I'm going to do something, I go all the way.

What I'm Doing

1. Strategy

Discovery is a simple way to help any business understand, prioritize and focus on a clear vision and a plan to help them achieve their goals. These exercises allow us:
1) To work together- to devise a solution.
2) Build amaizing brands-Define what makes your brand different and worth noticing.
3) Clarify and Focus- Keep the project moving on task and on track.

2. Website Development

I build highly scalable platforms and well-tested products that are ready to handle millions of users on a daily basis. I choose the simplest tools that will effectively accomplish a task. Simple sites load faster, are easier to use and are less prone to problems.

3. Web Applications/Software Development

I design and develop user-friendly applications for you and your clients. Our approach is different than most because we take the time to learn your business inside-and-out before we make a single technology choice.

Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.

Work Process

As a human being, I'm work in process.

My work process

1. Idea

This first step is actually the most important one, as it involves a solid understanding of the company it is created for. It involves a good understanding of you – what your business goals and dreams are, and how the web can be utilized to help you achieve those goals.

2. Stretegy/Discovery

essentially what we do in strategy is the discovery phase, we try to learn not so much about you and your project brand, but more importantly. Who your customers and users are. We want to understand their pain point, challenges they go through, what a win looks like and understands not just the demographics but the psychographics by learning this we can give them what they want. Which will help you to succeed even more with a shorter time stamp, From that info, we come up with all the esthetic decisions to build your project separating you from any and all competition. For that, we typically charge 10-20k to do the strategy exclusive of all the deliverables.

3. Design

Drawing from the information gathered up to this point, it’s time to determine the look and feel of your site. As part of the design phase, it is also important to incorporate elements such as the company logo or colors to help strengthen the identity of your company on the web site.

4. Develop

With designs approved, it’s time to flesh out the design of the pages, develop new content and refine old content, create videos, slideshows, podcasts and other media that will appear on the site as well as start to build out the HTML and CSS of the site.

5. Test

Before the site is launched, it will be placed on a production server where only internal audiences and anyone who you share the link with can view it. Testing of the site is critical as there will inevitably be issues that need to be addressed before the site goes live.

6. Launch

The big day. we’ve tested the site, had it reviewed and approved by the project stakeholders, and we’re ready to launch. This stage we Expect to make some immediate changes to the site, such as fixing broken links, editing copy and making adjustments.
