Paul Galdone

• The amazing illustration work of the late Paul Galdone is now online in a site maintained by his children. Galdone created the art work for hundreds of children’s books, book jackets and novels, including some that I read to my daughter when she younger. I felt very honored to be part of the project.

• The site uses WordPress architecture with a Graph Paper Press template to display the illustrations full-screen. We went with WordPress to allow for updates through a News section and other additions down the road.

Rising Health Strategies

• On the recommendation from another of my clients, Josh Rising approached me to help build a new website for his healthcare consulting business.

• Using a GeneratePress template, the website’s navigation leads to other elements on its single page. I also set up the domain name, hosting and security certificate for the WordPress-based site, which adapts across all platforms.

Shoestring Automotive

• With an accumulation of parts in our attics and garages, my friend Alex Hanson and I thought it would be good to launch a website to expand our reach (and bypass the fees of sites like eBay). We’re also selling new and used parts on commission from others looking to clear space.

• The website is WordPress-based with SSL security, using the GeneratePress template so it is tablet/mobile-friendly. With a WooCommerce store and shopping cart, we’re able to process payments via PayPal. Our young website has shipped parts as far away as Australia!

The Left Coast Press

• Susan Mackinnon approached me to build a simple website for the Seattle-based press she and her sister are launching in late 2023. It’s pretty straightforward, but has room to grow with their business!

• The WordPress-based site uses a GeneratePress template that adapts across all platforms. It will be easy to add a newsletter or blog at a later date, as well as a shopping cart for ordering books.

Town of Tunbridge

• The Tunbridge Selectboard approached me to help bring their website up-to-date. I used GeneratePress’ WordPress template to reorganize the navigation and also used Emily Howe’s excellent photography (and a few by me) to dress up the pages. With Janet Zug’s long-running Tunbridge Quarterly and an Events Calendar online, it’s now an excellent resource for the community.

• The WordPress-based site is dynamic for desktop, tablet or phone views and search engines easily find updated pages.

Town of Williamstown

• After I successfully revamped the Town of Tunbridge’s website, Williamstown Town Manager Jacqueline Higgins asked me to do the same for theirs. We moved the Joomla-based site over to WordPress, using the same GeneratePress-based template that I created for Tunbridge. We also included a feed to the town’s Facebook page for updates.

• The website is dynamic for desktop, tablet or phone views and search engines easily find updated pages as government documents are added.

Tunbridge Church

• For quite a while I have been the volunteer website mechanic for the Tunbridge Church’s site, keeping it up-to-date.

• We have switched the WordPress-based website to a newer GeneratePress template that’s phone and tablet friendly, also including a feed to the church’s Facebook page to keep everyone current.

Tunbridge Hill Farm

• For several years I have been maintaining a website I designed for our neighbors, Wendy and Jean Palthey, who have a beautiful vegetable farm. I not only designed the site for them, but I’m fortunate to go photograph their farm on occasion. There’s nothing like warm soil on your bare feet!

• The website has been switched to a WordPress-based structure with SSL security, using the GeneratePress template so the site is tablet/mobile-friendly. We recently added a WooCommerce store and shopping cart to the site, which helps Wendy and Jean to receive orders and payments before going to market.
