My Bag 'O Tricks (what I do)
- Design & Interface I design attractive websites and interfaces that help visitors find what they're looking for.
- Meaningful Code I write less code that does more. Whether you look at it or not, my code is flexible and forward-thinking.
- Website Speed & Load Times Website load times directly effect conversions (and dollars). Most people don't wait for slow sites.
- Search Engine Optimization I can help create solid SEO foundation. Some designers claim to offer SEO, but I research and practice it more than most web designers. Really.
- Measure of Success A great-looking website is nice, but it's not the most important thing. Analytics shows us how people are using your site.
- Write Well I pay attention to what I write on websites, in code, on emails, in IM's, everywhere! Being a good writer is about more than words.
- Stay Current It's my job and hobby to stay current. Almost daily I read about design ideas, picking out useful and practical ones.
- Realistic & Focused I only bite off what I can chew. I'm lucky to have great advisors to help with anything else.
