Helped a client with every aspect of his web presence. Worked with the client extensively on content strategy and search engine optimization, before assembling a simple-yet-elegant design that seemed brand-appropriate.

Originally developed simple managed-content back-end in Django to support the site, leveraging mostly Flatpages as well as a contact form. Wanted to work within a small budget, but to leverage a framework that would allow for additional features like user login and payment.

Ported to Sinatra in October 2010 in order to learn more about Ruby. Functionality stayed exactly the same.
