WordPress Developer in Pittsfield, MA, United States

A retailer of fine rugs and antiques, Solomon's Collection and Fine Rugs was early to join the internet game. While they had images of some of their rugs online, they desired a true eCommerce, online showroom solution that was product-oriented rather than brand-centric.

We referenced all of the major successful online retailers and used them as models, dissecting how their products were set up, different view and page types, flow, design, structure, and user interface across devices.

Then, pulling the most common and significant features from these models, we designed and developed a custom Shopify theme.

Since the new website has been live, we have received a lot of interest in licensing the theme and bringing it to the wider world. Solomon's reports rave reviews and that their visitors are enthusiastic about the website's usability and overall feel.

Designed and developed a new website for Artscope Magazine, New England's culture magazine.

This refactoring considered both the Artscope team, and streamlining their website updating process, as well as the experience of the readers. Artscope has received consistent reports from their audience of being pleased with the improved usability, and that readers now have more of a willingness, and desire to explore the site.

Consultations on, and implementation of Artscope's latest ad campaign has resulted in positive revenue.

Developed a new website, and private client live-stream viewing area for Outpost, a film, and video production company.

Outpost now uses the live-streaming capabilities both as a selling point for, and a tool in their post-production services. They report that many clients are joining them because of this unique feature.

Developed a new website for songwriter, producer, and creator, Robby Baier.

Robby was looking for a place to feature his original music as well as his other projects. This required a custom backend for him to easily maintain a variety of project types (some yet to go public). The new design has been well-received by visitors!

Designed, and developed a new website for actor, author, and artist, David Dayan Fisher.

This design needed to incorporate the many different sides of Mr. Fisher, balancing flexibility to showcase his different types of work while simultaneously representing a unified brand. He reports positive reviews from visitors!

Developed an interactive website for Christie Allen, a writer, creator, and author.

The key was creating an experience to showcase Ms. Allen's work in an interactive way while also showing a piece of her in the overall design. She reports that the final product has generated interest surrounding her work from target audiences, as well as leads to potential collaborators and "the powers that be" in her various fields of work.

Designed, and developed an interactive drawing program for artist, Rex Detiger.

This development was the foundation for Rex's "Rex Sends Me Postcards" project. Users draw, and type on a virtual "Postcard," which Rex then receives, and mails a paper copy. He continues to receive submissions, showing the project to be alive and well!
