ServicesI hand-build fast, reliable websites and web applications for Chicago businesses — from focused marketing sites to full-stack custom tools. Clean code, no bloated page builders, and a site you actually own.
Drag-and-drop builders ship megabytes of code you don’t need, load slowly, and break when a plugin updates. I write modern, standards-based code — React, TypeScript, and proven tooling — so your site loads in a blink, scores well on Core Web Vitals, and doesn’t fall apart the next time WordPress updates. Speed isn’t a luxury: Google ranks fast sites higher, and customers abandon slow ones.
Need more than a marketing site? I build booking systems, quote calculators, customer portals, dashboards, and integrations with the tools you already use — payments, email, CRMs, maps. Because I handle both the front end and the back end, you explain the whole idea once, to one person, and it gets built the way you described it.
Some developers build sites only they can maintain, then hold you hostage. I do the opposite: clean, documented, standard code that any competent developer can pick up. You get full access to the repository, the hosting account, and every credential from day one. If you ever want to move on, everything goes with you — though my care plans mean you won’t want to.
We define exactly what the site must do — in plain language — and you get a fixed quote and timeline before a line of code is written.
You see progress on a staging link as it happens. Feedback is a conversation, not a support ticket.
We test on real phones and real connections, launch together, and I stick around after go-live to make sure everything holds.
Marketing sites with custom development typically start around $1,500–$3,500; full-stack features are quoted per project. Always fixed, always in writing.
Custom design that looks like your business — not a template your competitor is also using. Built to turn visitors into calls.
