Hiring a web designer is one of the most important decisions for your business. The right designer can create a website that builds trust, supports growth, and reflects your brand — but only if you ask the right questions first. This guide walks you through 10 essential questions to ask before hiring a web designer, helping you choose a partner who understands your goals and delivers a site you’ll be proud to share.
For over two decades, I’ve been designing and building digital experiences that balance clarity, creativity, and performance. My work lives at the intersection of design and technology — where thoughtful storytelling meets clean, efficient code.
I started early — taking programming classes in high school before earning my degree in Multimedia Design. That blend of logic and artistry still defines how I approach every project today. Whether it’s designing a fast, beautiful website or streamlining a brand system, I focus on making things that not only look great but work great.
After years as a one-man design shop for boutique agencies and later as the sole designer and developer at a 400-person global SaaS company, I’ve learned to move comfortably between creative direction, technical implementation, and client communication. I’ve designed print campaigns, built WordPress and Shopify sites from the ground up, supported global events, and optimized digital ecosystems for speed, usability, and growth.
These days, I partner with clients and agencies who value quality, trust, and collaboration. My goal isn’t just to “build a site” — it’s to build something sustainable, something that fits your goals, scales gracefully, and gives you confidence every time you hit “publish.”
When I’m not designing or developing, I’m usually exploring new tools, refining workflows, or helping others understand how technology can make their work easier. I’m curious by nature, focused by design, and happiest when I’m building something that makes someone else’s job — or life — a little simpler.

Build for longevity. Future-proof over flashy.
People over pixels. The best designs respect both the audience and the client.
