Whether you're a digital DIYer who just needs a little guidance, a computer-shy genius who wants to reach an international audience, or a passionate business person who needs to hand-off creative tasks so you can focus on the big stuff, I'm here for you! With 15 years of experience working for the big boys in the Seattle tech scene, I've developed a wide range of technical and project management skills that I use to help independent businesses, artisans, creatives, organizations, and non-profits shine.
For well-defined projects, I build out a project quote based on your specifications which we review and agree to before I start. Half of the project total is due at the beginning, and the final payment is due at launch or on delivery. You can pay with a card, cash/check, or wire transfer. As hard as we try to avoid it, sometimes requirements evolve. If you initiate changes to the project after we begin, fees will be added to the original project quote at the hourly rate and will result in a mid-project bill for the difference. For ongoing work, I use a bill rate and invoice weekly with terms due upon receipt. You'll be billed in quarter-hour increments with a half-hour minimum.
