Web designer. Business manager. AI consultant.
Websites, business systems and AI that runs in production. Not decks, not prototypes.
Most of it starts with something broken.
I work with small companies across North Florida. Most of them came to me because something was broken: a site nobody could find, a phone nobody answered, a process that only worked when one specific person was at their desk. I design the fix, build it in their accounts, and hand over the keys.
13 sites, all live today
A scroll-driven vehicle launch page built as a craft exercise. Ten real photographic frames driven by scroll position, a synthesized V8 the visitor can switch on, and a configurator that repaints the truck. An unaffiliated concept study, labeled as one on the page.

Every show, class, mural day and open mic in northeast Florida in one feed, with artist profiles behind it. Editorial type over full-bleed photography, built so the people making the work can post to it themselves.
creativecoastbuzz.com
An epoxy and polyaspartic coatings business in northeast Florida, moved off a rented page builder onto static hosting it owns outright. Condensed display type, the owner's own job photography, and a quote path that goes straight to his phone.
turnedupcustomcoatings.com
Early childhood math and reading tutoring in Williamson County, Tennessee. Warm script and serif against a soft palette, because the audience is a parent deciding who to trust with a five-year-old, and a lead pipeline that files every enquiry into the CRM behind it.

Every business in Putnam County, scraped, cleaned, geocoded and published as a searchable directory with an interactive map. The kind of dataset project that usually needs a team and a year.

Eleven dispute-letter generators, round tracking, Stripe checkout and the content engine feeding it. I wrote the product, the funnel and the SEO layer, including the canonical fix that was suppressing the whole site.

My own agency site. Keyword-first titles, programmatic town pages, a working blog and an AI chat agent that books calls inline instead of dumping visitors into a contact form.
ancientcitygroup.com
The largest of the 904 network. Service and service-area pages built for local search, with an AI voice line behind the phone number that answers, transcribes and emails every call.

Same architecture, different trade. Service pages, a guides section written for answer engines, and quote capture wired straight through to email.
904boatdetailing.com
Residential and commercial cleaning, with its own booking path and its own sending credentials so one site's problems never take down another's.
904maids.com
Storm work does not arrive during business hours, so the phone line is a voice agent that takes the details at three in the morning and has them in an inbox by three-oh-one.
904treeservice.com
The first site in the network and the one that proved the model: build the asset, rank it, then rent the phone number to the contractor who can actually do the work.
904epoxycoatings.com
A personal travel site where the photography had to lead and the writing had to be easy to keep adding to. Static, fast, and cheap enough to run forever.

Across every client and property
Since 2011
I design and build the whole site, not a theme with the colors changed. Type, layout, motion, copy and the code underneath it. Every site in the index above is one I drew and shipped myself, and every one of them is built to be found: static HTML, real structured data, pages that render before the JavaScript arrives.
Running the business is the other half of the job. I scope the work, price it, ship it and keep it running afterwards, across a portfolio of my own products and client accounts at the same time. When I build an operations system for someone else, it is one I have already had to run myself.
The useful version of this is unglamorous. Find the task a person repeats forty times a week, replace it with something that runs whether or not anyone is at their desk, and make sure the business owns every credential when I leave. Voice agents that answer the phone, intake that files itself, follow-up that sends.

A short colophon. Static HTML, self-hosted type, real screenshots, and a build step that refuses to lie about numbers.

The person you are designing for already knows what you do.

He understood that my website needed to feel warm, trustworthy, and welcoming to parents while still being professional and easy to navigate. He listened carefully to my ideas and transformed them into a website that truly reflects who I am and the work I do.
Website design
He took the time to understand my business, my customers, and how I wanted my work represented. The finished site looks sharp, professional, and makes our company stand out from the competition.
Website design
He took my vision and turned it into a beautiful, polished website that feels completely true to my personality and brand. I finally have a website I'm proud to share.
Website design
He understood how to improve our online visibility without relying on empty promises or confusing technical language. He carefully optimized the website, strengthened our search presence, and helped more of the right customers discover our products online.
SEO
He listened to what I needed, explained everything in plain language, and built a system around the way I actually wanted my business to operate. The automation now handles routine tasks consistently and gives me more time to focus on the parts of my business that need my personal attention.
AI automation
I take a small number of projects at a time, usually a site, an operations system, or an AI build that replaces something manual. If you have something specific in mind, the fastest thing is to describe it in two or three sentences and send it over.

Yes. An AI voice agent can answer every call, hold a real conversation, capture the caller's details, book an appointment, and email or text you a full transcript within seconds of hanging up. I run exactly this setup across a network of North Florida service sites. Setup takes days, not months, and it costs a fraction of an answering service.
Most AI agencies resell someone else's chatbot on a monthly retainer and hand you a login. An independent consultant who builds gives you the system itself, deployed in your accounts, with your credentials, documented well enough that you could hire anyone to maintain it. The test is simple: ask who owns the API keys when the engagement ends.
Yes. I'm based in Palatka and work on-site across North Florida, including Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Palm Coast, Gainesville and Ocala. The build work is remote-native and I take clients anywhere. Everything ships through cloud infrastructure, so location only matters for the kickoff conversation.
