Path to Vitality Acupuncture
Michelle is an amazing acupuncturist and healer who wanted a new website for her Chinese Medicine clinic. She wanted to convey a feeling of vitality, hope, and wellness with her site and branding, and it was important to her to be able to easily share relevant health-related information with current and future clients.
High Tide Salon
A new local beauty salon with a unique aesthetic needed a website for current and future clients to refer to. The ambience of High Tide Salon is relaxed, coastal, and cool, but also professional and high-end, and the site needed to reflect this. 🌊
Tom Fillebrown Art
One of my favorite teachers needed a website to showcase his abstract art pieces, and it was an interesting case of synchronicity when my very first web class was assigned his site as a project. A couple years after my less-than-stellar first attempt I decided to start from scratch with the new design, code, and life experience I had gained in the interim. I should probably show it to him one day! 😂🙈
Blue Nami Sushi
I used to eat a ton of sushi on a pretty regular basis, so for practice I designed and coded a website for one of my favorite sushi restaurants. The ambiance of Blue Nami is really cool because it incorporates authentic Japanese decor with modern pieces and lighting almost reminiscent of a nightclub, and that was my inspiration for this design.
PBC Knowledge Base
In 2006 my aunt Vera came very close to dying from a liver disease called primary biliary cholangitis, and she would have if it wasn’t for her daughter donating a portion of her liver (which is a pretty cool story, by the way)! I wanted to learn more about PBC, and found myself motivated to create this site as a way of educating people about this often fatal but sometimes preventable illness.
Imperative Polarities
Long before I started becoming consciously aware of duality or Eastern philosophy, I found myself drawn to the concept of integrated opposites like yin/yang and right brain/left brain. I created this website to explore how the design (right brain) and code (left brain) aspects are more effective when utilized together in a balanced way. 🧠
Partial Sites
Some of these sites are partially but not fully coded, some of them stayed in the design phase and never touched a code editor, and for better or for worse they’re now memorialized here in JPEG form. 😁
