I believe sophisticated and functional designs in Squarespace shouldn’t be a struggle to achieve.

My passion for design led me down this road with Squarespace, a platform I'm deeply familiar with, which has allowed me to help hundreds of clients grow thriving businesses. Since 2012, I've built over 500 websites and established strategies designed to help people succeed.

When it comes to Squarespace, I’ve seen it all.

There’s an endless laundry list of tasks to tackle with even the most simple websites - let alone if you’re setting out to build a digital course, membership portal, ecommerce, or more. I know how frustrating it is to hit wall after wall in the process, from design to user experience strategy, all the while trying to be conscious of your time and budget.

I’m neurodivergent, and while this hasn’t felt like a superpower in my experience, I believe it expands my creativity and informs my eye as a designer. I leverage my skills to help improve the structure and layout of your website, while keeping a modern design-sense and mobile-first user experience top of mind. 

life beyond a screen

My wife, Amélie de Beaumont-Mabee, and I were married in Iceland in 2018. We recently moved to Mattapoisett, Massachusetts, with our two dogs, Kelce and Bailey.

Even as a kid, I always wanted to help people. Look, that's me, helping my pop. I've always wanted to lend a helping hand to assist people in getting things done in a better way.

I taught myself everything I know about Squarespace and web design. With 12 years of experience, I've built well over 500 websites and I've seen it all. You can't scare me with how many pages you have, how messy your content is, or anything. I’m ready to help you make sense of it, and give you the tools to succeed.

Values and Promises

i refuse to use the same fonts over and over on any website I build.

Design Ethos

This includes, but is not limited to: Poppins, Lato, Montserrat, Raleway, Helvetica, Arial, Roboto, Adobe Garamond, and others that are similar.

i will obsess over the design of your site, to ensure it fits what you need to succeed.

Even though I work fast, I take my time working through what we’ll build together. If you’re trusting me with building your website, it’s up to me to return that trust with something you’ll be proud of when we’re done.

i won’t slow down your site with unnecessary code.

I only use custom code on website projects when its absolutely necessary, and most of the time it’s purely cosmetic (fonts, basic custom CSS). If I need to add additional code to your site, I’ll be as transparent as possible and make sure you understand how to update it before we’re done.

Business Ethos

i build websites you can easily maintain, while keeping your business goals front and center.

Every website I work on, I do my best to build in a fashion that makes it easy for you as a business owner to jump in and make an update. With other developers and platforms, you might be stuck having to lean on them for updates, but with me, you’re going to feel empowered to make changes yourself.

I’m always transparent with my pricing, and what I quote on a project is what I commit to. As a client, I ask you to commit to paying what we’ve agreed on, with the understanding that out of scope items can result in additional costs.

i refuse to nickel and dime you on costs, and i stick to my word.

Personal Ethos

i will fiercely support your right to love who you want to love.

I am an advocate and ally of the LGBTQIA2S community, and will not stand for any hatred of any kind with any project I work on or client I work with. You are safe here.

i believe in giving you the power to be who you want to be.

I believe Black Lives Matter. I know that what makes you different is your gift to the world, and I will celebrate and welcome all intersectional identities - from neurodivergence, to religious beliefs, to disabilities and everything in between. I actively invest in and work to build an equitable, inclusive, anti-racist company from the inside out. I believe in science.

I encourage you to get in touch if you share these values and want to work with a company with a dynamic, intersectionally diverse team and clients.
