My Approach
I prioritize collaboration and open communication to make informed design decisions.
I'm a full-stack designer with over 8 years of professional experience building websites and working on brand strategy projects both as an in-house designer and independently. I've successfully worked on websites, graphic design projects, and design strategy for companies in the heavy civil construction, healthcare, and retail industries.
Goal-Oriented
I’m always focused on the big picture. When we establish clear goals, it drives the entire design process forward with focus and clear metrics for success.
Attention to Detail
I believe in quality craftsmanship and strive to imbue everything that I create with high attention to detail without cutting corners or using cookie-cutter templates.
Direct Communication
When you work with me, you’re talking to the person directly producing your work. My process involves honest communication, collaboration, and transparency.

From inception to final delivery, Mary-Ann’s efficiency, dedication and end results exceeded our expectations. I’ve never been prouder to showcase a new site to coworkers and clients.
Mary-Ann did a great job on our website. We are very pleased with the way it turned out. Her focus and vision for what we needed was very helpful in the design and implementation. She has great communication and is very prompt in resolving any issues that would arise. She is multi-talented in all the aspects of the development, pictures, and videography. She brought our site to a whole new level.
Working with Mary-Ann was great! She was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process. The website was created in a timely manner. She was very patient with comments, questions and revisions.
Mary-Ann was a pleasure to deal with and made the process very simple. Mary-Ann’s knowledge and experience working with construction companies was huge. I believe the result of completing our website will have many benefits including less turnover, better recruiting, and more sales.
Mary-Ann was incredibly helpful (and patient) in walking us through really consolidating all of our ideas and creating a streamlined and robust site. She is always very responsive and ready to help whenever we need it.

Mary-Ann is very professional and makes the process of developing a website seamless, from an initial mapped out schedule of events to creative processes and advice. She has got it all! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a refreshed website, and look forward to working with her again in the near future.
From our first inquiry to the day our website launched, Mary-Ann made this entire process so seamless. Her level of organization and clarity of communication is absolutely top notch, which is something you get from day one till launch day.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mary-Ann on a few website rebuilds over the past two years and she continually succeeds at every request we send her way. The perfect blend of independent creativity and collaboration, Mary-Ann takes design concepts and develops them to fruition, all while adding her personal touch. I’ve already recommended Mary-Ann to several of my colleagues and will continue to do so as she consistently exceeds our expectations and provides reliable support no matter the project.
Our team greatly enjoyed working with Mary-Ann to rebuild our website. Her project management skills made the entire process enjoyable and efficient. From start to finish, Mary-Ann exemplified creativity and professionalism. It was a pleasure to partner with her!
