I am an award-winning website designer and Squarespace Gold Circle Partner with over 25 years of experience in website design and web development services that include advanced customization development using CSS and Javascript. I offer agency level, wide-scope skills and expertise, with the personal attention, affordability, and flexibility that a solo designer studio delivers. Pacific Sun Magazine named my studio Best Digital Creative Services in Marin County in both 2017 and 2018.
Every project is modular, not typical web design packages, giving clients great results with reduced costs, often saving 20% or more. My budget-friendly approach to design is the result of over 3 decades of business management experience and refined, streamlined, methodology. I offer Flex Design Packages that affordably deliver whatever a brand needs, and affordable monthly services packages: Cybersecurity & Site Maintenance, and Squarespace SEO. Larger projects benefit from my flexible hourly billing, project phases, and streamlined processes.
Experience in designing all size sites, from solo entrepreneurs to global brand enterprise websites with 80,000+ visitors monthly, gives me broad knowledge of proven solutions. I am a heart-centered, creative who authentically cares about my clients, their brand's mission, and the people the brand exists to serve. Deep conversations form rich collaborations and partnership. My approach is holistic, creating solutions for array of customizations, digital tools and features that successful businesses need, creating powerful online visual presence and brand awareness, streamlining their digital promotion efforts, increasing ease of operations and revenue.
My web designs develop digital ecosystems that coherently integrate SEO and AI visibility features throughout during development, not as an afterthought. This is combined with advanced customizations, Squarespace add-ons and third-party integrated tools, widgets and embeds. The result is websites that rank in search, elevate brands beautifully, reach the best aligned audiences and inspire them to act.
The reason my design studio is named Lotus Live Design Creative Studio is because I do portions of web design projects live with my clients via collaborative Zoom or in-person meetings. This method of collaborating with my clients speeds up their design project deliverables, reduces their costs, delivers better results, and creates mutually inspiring and dynamic experiences that double as tutorials. When I design, especially during Live Design collaborative design sessions with clients via Zoom, I'm coaching them in business development as well.
My undergraduate degree is in fine art, specializing in graphic design, from California College of the Arts in San Francisco. My masters education is in psychology. I am proud to be a founding student and active member of the global Squarestylist Standout Squarespace design community, an active member of the SEOSpace SEO specialists community, and a member of the Academy Of Intuition Medicine® community with Master Of Intuition Medicine® certification. I live in Marin County, just north of San Francisco CA.
