Founder and designer at Loomwest, a web design studio in Gilroy, California. I came to web design from engineering, where precision is the job.
I build websites for local businesses that are good at what they do but are losing customers to a search result. I design, write and build every Loomwest site by hand and stay the point of contact afterward. Before a site goes live, I measure it on a phone and check it against a nineteen-point launch checklist.
| Site | Where | Highlights |
|---|---|---|
| Soul Beauty Spa | San Rafael | Searchable 67-treatment menu, booking from every section |
| Pastelaria Adega | San Jose | Bakery, ordering, markets on a map |
| Petiscos by Adega | San Jose | Restaurant, reservations and delivery |
| Auburn Sewing Studio | Auburn | Classes with online payment |
| South County Window Cleaning | Gilroy | Before-and-after solar slider, the owner's own photography, holiday lighting gallery |
| Nine Star Drywall | Hollister | The company's first website, interactive texture room to compare finishes, real reviews |
| Faria Accountancy Corporation | San Jose | One refined, type-led page with the owner's services, logo, photo and credentials |
Every launch ships with a private preview and a review form, a privacy page, map links, and visit counting with no cookies.
