I help other creatives and small business owners go from “my work deserves more attention than it’s getting“ to “wow, I’ve made a real place for myself online.” 

So right about now, you might be thinking, sounds great, but how?

Well, like this….

Hi I’m Jenny, your online hostess with the mostest.

so here’s how it works

I help you put the pieces together:

Your “brand” is a story we tell well

Every project weaves brand strategy, visual design, and copywriting together to make sure your story feels complete, to you and the people you’re talking to.

We put your website at the center of your brand universe

You can market on social, email, word-of-mouth. But wherever you do choose to show up, your website is built to stand behind you, ready to nurture your relationships and help you grow purposefully.

And hosting is the heart of it all

Selling online can feel cold and impersonal, but it doesn’t have to be. Your corner of the internet can be built to welcome people in and give them a good experience while they’re there.

You want your future clients to feel welcomed, not overwhelmed. Seen, not sold to.

It's Simple, Really

We all just need to find the right story to invite people in.

Most of the people I work with are small business owners selling their services or building their own personal brand, which means their work is really about connecting with people.

They need their brand to make their business feel personable and trustworthy to the people they’re working with and I help them do that.

Some of the people I love to help:

I WOULDN'T BE A VERY GOOD HOST, IF I DIDN'T SHARE MY OWN STORY TOO

Before I ever designed a website, I spent years studying how all kinds of stories work.

Storytelling First

Before websites, there were books. I taught college literature and writing. And I got to spend years researching how authors can shape a reader’s experience and make something feel real on the page.

Good Hospitality

I waited tables to put myself through grad school, and you’ll still see a fine-dining mindset in how I think about websites: thoughtful details, anticipating what people need, and creating an experience they'll want to tell their friends about.

Systems Thinking

Then my own story took a turn: I traded academia for district operations at a national fitness brand. Let me just say, juggling lots of people and moving parts like that, you learn how essential it is that your business' tools can work well and work together.

Words That Move

That fitness brand? It was yoga. And a big part of my job was training teachers how to use their words to actually move people. We cut away the filler and fluff to create precise cues that could energize people and guide them step-by-step.

Color Stories

Outside of work, I was making flowers. My favorite hobby is paper floristry (its very niche, I know) and its made me deeply nerdy about the language of color, how palettes tell stories, and how composition can artfully guide the eye.

Creative Entrepreneurship

To my surprise, I liked designing the website for my flowers almost more than making bouquets. As an officially-curious person, I followed that rabbit-hole through professional training into freelance copywriting and web design.

And More

And then there was And Nine. After a few years building websites as a freelancer, I saw that many clients needed more than a one-time design. They needed a studio they could return to for their brand, words, website, and whatever came next.
