Erica Holloway, media maven and PR expert, Principal of the San Diego based firm Galvanized Strategies, came to me for a new WordPress website design.
Her clarity of vision, ability to foster creative freedom, and organizational style, made our collaboration a breeze, see was pretty much a perfect client! The final result is a bright, beautiful website that clearly communicates the strength and expertise that she brings to her clients. Thank you Erica, for such a rewarding and fun working experience!!!

My deep gratitude to Belinda and Pam for such a connected and awesome collaboration!
It’s true, I had the amazing opportunity to work with the fantastic author and artist SARK (Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy) building a new WordPress website for her online home at PlanetSARK.com.
I will admit to being a little nervous, I had never worked with someone quite so famous before, and I wasn’t sure what that would look like. It turns out that what it looks like is a grounded and considerate co-creative process, a team of kind and talented people, a perspective of honesty, generosity and mindfulness, and a woman at the center of the project who walks-her-(world renowned)-talk.
I worked with joy, stretched my skillset and creative boundaries, learned and taught a lot, laughed a lot, and contributed to the birthing of a wondrous new online presence that my client and her team are ecstatically happy with…what a wonderful experience!!
The nitty-gritty:
- SARK + Team came to me with an existing but unfinished WordPress website design.
- They were looking for someone to:
- polish the website mock-up and bring it up to SARK’s level of fun, creativity, integrity and personality
- build the new WordPress website from scratch
- get the support team members up and running with training on managing site updates and maintenance.
- We worked as a core team of 5, with some other contributing team members joining in at various points along the way.
Project Feedback:
Lisa~ Thank you for the LOVE you put into the new website! You made it come to life, and we so appreciate you! Susan, Dori, and the Planet SARK Team

Big, huge, gigantic thanks to Amy Ahlers, I always have fun working with you!!!
This is a very brief overview of the WordPress website design project Amy and I completed recently.
Amy was getting ready to launch her first published book and wanted a WordPress website that combined the professionalism of a bestselling author and a warm and welcoming landing place for her viewers.
We took the initial site comp that Amy had from another designer and made fairly extensive revisions (see initial and revised comps below). The final result is a bright, beautiful, professional, communicative website that is extremely functional and easy to navigate.

OMG! Unbeknownst to me, one of my regular clients, the lovely Amy Ahlers filmed a video testimonial about her experience working with me.
Big huge heartfelt thanks to Amy for her generosity of spirit, and for being a fantastic woman to work with! Clients like her make working feel more like creative playtime.
Congratulations to Marion Chamberlain on the launch of her newly redesigned WordPress website!
My heartfelt thanks to Marion for her willingness to be a fully present co-creator as we revamped the look of her site!
Marion’s previous site template wasn’t quite communicating the spirit of what Marion has to offer, there was a definite disconnect between her energy and the energy of the site. We had a great time incorporating her muse, her favorite pieces of artwork, and the playful photos of her (after a backyard photo shoot she undertook at my request) into the new site design.
All of this creativity, playfulness and communication resulted in a site that Marion loves and feels connected to, and that I am incredibly proud of!!!
