What Clients Say
I recommend Kirsten without reservation. She listened carefully to my design ideas and then brought them to life, coaching me through developing the look and feel of a great looking website. Her attention to detail – fonts, colours and layout – really show in the final site. Need a great designer that can bring together the technical and artistic – look no further.
As a designer, it’s critical for me to work with an interactive developer who is resourceful, reliable and knowledgeable. Kirsten has all those qualities and more. No matter what questions I have on a project, she’ll have the answers for and, if she’s not sure, she’ll investigate. Kirsten is an inquisitive and adaptable developer – prerequisite qualities for designing or coding interactive material. She is an expert in her field with an open mind and a generous nature – a professional relationship I’m very happy to continue.
I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone with such a breadth of talent in so many areas… and she doesn’t just dabble, she masters everything she puts her mind to. She pretty much just decides to do something, and then a month later she’s great at it. I’m telling you, she can do anything. ANYTHING!

New worlds, new explorations in 2016
I just attended this year’s WordCamp Vancouver, and realized I’m well overdue for a new post here.
In 2016, I explored the joys and challenges of remote working by spending a few months in India, and balancing travel and meditation with ongoing project work. I’ve been involved in a few rich and complex WordPress development projects, one that hasn’t launched yet, and a suite […]
