“A consistent struggle is making due where the work demands expertise beyond my ability. Suffice it to say I’m no site developer, so its been all the more inspiring to finally work with a true professional that could take my site to the next level. The Red Read is something between an altar and art-installation. It now visual reflects the radical spirit and decolonial mission that the red read strives toward. May your experience at my digital home-base evoke the transformative clarity that will mirror what you will encounter in a consultation or class. And if you are looking for assistance with your web design, I cannot recommend HR highly enough.” —Christopher Marmolejo

      My studio is located on Vashon Island, Washington. While some of my clients are also located in the Pacific Northwest, the vast majority of my work is done remotely. During your project, you have the opportunity to book Zoom sessions through my website for whenever is most convenient for you. So no matter what your time zone is, I have worked with clients across the United States, as well as in Canada, Mexico and South America, throughout Europe, in India, and Australia, too. I love meeting new people and hearing about what your project is! So wherever you call home, don’t hesitate to reach out.

      Timelines depend on the project, but I generally dedicate about 4 to 6 weeks to each client. We'll setup a clear timeline with goals and deadlines for each step along the way towards your launch, so you're always in-the-know with how things are progressing.

      Definitely. Once your website is ready to launch, I'll invite you to have full administration privileges, which will allow you to make any future edits, updates, or changes to your website. We'll also have a 1-hour Zoom session to walk through every aspect of your website, and go over how you can make any edits in the future. This session will be recorded so you can refer back to it whenever you're ready. Don’t want to make updates yourself? You can book me in the future for 1-day or 1/2-day blocks, and I'll jump back in and make any updates you need.

      I'll invoice you for an initial first-half payment when we're ready to begin your project. You'll have the ability to securely pay via all major credit or debit cards, ApplePay, Klarna, or with an ACH direct debit bank transfer. Upon completion of your project, I'll invoice you for the remainder, and then we’ll launch you’re website! If none of these payment methods work for you or your organization, we can work out a different solution. I’m also happy to coordinate with institutions and invoice them directly.
