Do you need a website that grows your business? Tired of redesigning and rebuilding your website every 6 months? If you're here, you probably need a designer/ developer that can help you create the website of your dreams: one that looks great and converts new users into loyal customers. You want a website that will last alongside your brand, not one you can't stand the sight of in 3 months. Working with me lets you focus on the parts of your business you know how to run, while I take care of the website side of things. There are hundreds of designers out there that focus on a flashy website without ever really diving into the strategy of the content that makes high converting websites great. As both designer and developer, I'm able to keep the project moving from idea to the final result. I take the time to understand your audience and what your brand needs to keep users engaged and converting. I've worked with over 30 clients to design and develop high converting websites that make both customers and businesses happy. Here's what some of them had to say: "We love KC around here! They have saved us in a pinch with their beautiful designs on more than one occasion. KC is extremely talented and their work is exceptional. They go above and beyond in their designs (even with little direction to work from) and always communicates in a timely manner. KC is patient, skilled, professional, and honestly, just lovely to work with. I highly recommend KC for your next project!" "KC has worked on many projects for me. She is great and really knows her stuff. She has a great eye for details and solving problems. I look forward to working with her many more times in the future." If your ready to build that website of your dreams, schedule a free consultation call with me where we can talk about your goals, your vision, and create a plan on how to move forward. Send me a message to arrange the call today!

Hi there! My name is Alex and it's my job to provide you with quality content that attracts your ideal audience on social media. I'm passionate about helping businesses develop meaningful relationships with their customers through thoughtful strategies and creative content. Most of all, I love being a part of the magic that happens when businesses connect with people and help them realize the value of your product or service. Behind every great business is a great personality and the ability to offer a product or service that people can't get enough of. You know what you want to say, but you don't have the time to produce content for social media or other marketing campaigns. That's where I come in! I can help with: ⭐️ Content creation (creation of graphics, product photography, or ideas for you to create your own) ⭐️ Social media management (Instagram or Facebook posts, Pins, community engagement, etc.) ⭐️ Marketing strategies (planning out campaigns) You'll be able to focus on what you do best while I handle the rest!
