Custom web design,
built on Salt Spring.

I grew up on Salt Spring Island, and I build custom websites for the businesses that make this island run.

The local option

Your web
designer
grew up here.

Most island businesses that want a website end up hiring an agency they never meet. I am the other option. I grew up here, my family is still here, and I am back on the island often, so we can sit down over a coffee in Ganges, look at your business together, and talk through what a site should actually do for you.

A lot of my island clients ran for years on reputation and word of mouth alone: no website, or one that had not been touched in a decade. That works until a visitor searches for you and finds nothing. My job is closing that gap with a fast, secure, custom-built site you can update yourself from your phone.

Working with Owen on the Maid in Victoria website was honestly one of the best business decisions we've made.

From the very beginning, he really took the time to understand not just what we wanted the site to look like — but how we wanted our brand to feel. He was incredibly patient with all of our ideas (and changes), super responsive, and genuinely cared about getting every detail right.
