IDEAS INTO ACTION

01 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK

A designer’s eye.
A founder’s mindset.

I’ve spent more than 12 years working across website design and digital marketing, helping businesses find their place online.

That experience shapes what I build today. With Hostio, my focus is making websites, domains and hosting easier to understand. With Current Media, it’s creating a place for local stories, businesses and communities to be seen.

I care about clear communication, thoughtful design and turning an idea into something useful. Away from the screen, you’ll find me hiking, camping and exploring the outdoors.
