What do I do exactly?
I do offer WordPress design and development services. My focus is on empowering WordPress website owners and DIY enthusiasts who want to take control of their online presence.
So, what does that mean for you? It means I’m here to lend my expertise and help you with your existing website, even if you’ve been rocking the DIY approach up until now.

When you work with me, you get access to a wide range of services, including:
Essentially, I’ve got you covered when it comes to setting up, customizing, and running a thriving WordPress website and online business. If you’re not quite sure what kind of help you need, no worries! Just check out next section for some inspiration.
Do you need a Designer, Developer, Coach, or Consultant?
Short Answer: You might need a combination of all four!
I call myself a WordPress coach and consultant, but what does that really mean?
The truth is, the lines between web professions can be a bit blurry. Everyone, yours truly included, has their own unique blend of specialties and focus areas. So, just because someone slaps a certain title on their business card doesn’t always paint the full picture.
Designers, developers, coaches, and consultants can all play a part in bringing your website to life, keeping it running smoothly, and helping it grow. Their specific role depends on their experience and skill set.
The Long Answer
Web professionals come in all sorts of flavors. Some designers stick to one platform (like yours truly with WordPress), while others are all about those fancy “builders” like Elementor or Divi. Developers might be code wizards who can whip up custom functionality, or they might focus solely on the technical stuff like databases and servers.
Coaches and consultants? We’re here to guide you, push you, and make sure you’re staying on track to crush your goals. We’ve got the knowledge and expertise to help you navigate the wild world of websites.
Finding Your Perfect Match
So, how do you know what kind of web pro you need? Start by making three lists:
- What you need for website creation
- The functionality you’re after
- The level of support you’re looking for
Think about what knowledge gaps you want to fill, too. That’ll help you zero in on whether a designer, developer, consultant, coach, or some combination thereof is your best bet. And don’t forget—experience matters! The more, the merrier (and the better for your website).

So, you could say I’ve got a particular set of skills and experience that’ll help you crush it online.
