As a photographer with nearly seven years of experience, I have an eye for capturing candid photographs in a multitude of genres. I have combined my passion for nature and authenticity whether it be photographing your child getting their first touchdown, snow-tipped mountains in Alaska, or your future house tucked away in a forest. What inspires me most are the spontaneous moments in life that create irreplaceable memories! I have strong organizational and collaboration skills. I am able to work well with others and individually as well as solve problems in a timely manner. I am proficient in Adobe applications such as Photoshop,

🔶 Your website has traffic. Why doesn't it have more customers? 🔶 Every underperforming page has a leak. Either the wrong people are reaching it, or the right people are landing and leaving because the offer is unclear, the proof is weak, the CTA is buried, or the layout makes them work too hard before they trust you. Sometimes, site owners can't tell which one it is. That is the gap I fill. 🔶 Here is how to start: Send me your URL, the action you want visitors to take, and where your traffic comes from. I will tell you where I think the biggest leak is. ------------------------------ I'm Michael. I audit websites and landing pages to find where interested visitors hesitate, get confused, lose trust, or fail to take the next step. Then I turn that diagnosis into a clearer page structure, annotated wireframe, copy direction, or implementation-ready redesign. A typical audit covers: 🔹Who the page is actually talking to, and whether that matches who is arriving 🔹What action the visitor is supposed to take, and whether the page makes it obvious 🔹Where the offer gets unclear or the value gets buried 🔹What proof or trust signals are missing, misplaced, or too generic to land 🔹Which buyer objections go unanswered 🔹Whether the real problem is traffic quality, page structure, copy, friction, or follow-up ------------------------------ My background is unusual. That is the advantage. I have a master's degree in Library and Information Science, a BA in Philosophy, professional editorial experience, and full-stack web development skills. That means I am not just checking whether a page looks good. I am evaluating whether the information is structured clearly enough for a real buyer to understand it, trust it, and act on it. Information architecture is what most conversion work skips. That is where too many redesigns miss the real problem. Proof that this is not theoretical: 🔹I built ScryVault, a private-beta product that turns book photos, ISBN scans, or manual entry into ready-to-review eBay listing drafts with human approval before publishing. I think about user flows, clarity, and friction every day. 🔹I was a copyeditor on The Quest: The Definitive Guide to Belonging by Dan J. Berger, published by Forbes Books in 2024. That sharpened my ability to spot unclear messaging, buried value propositions, and structure that does not land. 🔹I run Ældern Tomes, a niche ecommerce bookstore. Product clarity, buyer trust, catalog structure, and purchase friction are not abstractions for me. They are a typical Tuesday. ------------------------------ I am a good fit if you need: 🔹A homepage or landing page teardown with specific, actionable findings 🔹A conversion-focused redesign direction before you hire a designer or developer 🔹An annotated wireframe that maps layout, hierarchy, and copy placement 🔹Cleaner structure and stronger copy for a site that already gets traffic but is not converting What you get is a clear diagnosis, a stronger page structure, and a practical path forward. 🔶 Ready to find the leak? Send me your URL and we can look it over together.
