Experience behind the work

Real businesses.
Hands-on experience.

Website development, online sales and internal systems—these are businesses and organizations I’ve been directly involved with, and the work I’ve done for each.

Website build & ongoing maintenance

Friends of the Everglades

A Florida mission.
An enduring legacy.

Conservation nonprofit · Established 1969

Friends of the Everglades / Website design & maintenance

A website for a mission
that matters.

Founded in 1969 by Marjory Stoneman Douglas, Friends of the Everglades is a conservation nonprofit working to protect and restore the Everglades.

I built their website and continue to maintain it. The site brings together the organization’s mission, advocacy updates, education resources and ways for supporters to get involved.

My role
Website development and continuing maintenance for the organization.
The website
Organization history, news and advocacy, Young Friends education resources, and ways to donate or take action.

It’s an example of the work beyond launch: continuing to look after a website that serves an active organization and the people following its mission.

A longstanding client relationship.

The hands-on work
Improving how product options, pricing and related accessories are presented, making it easier for customers to understand the choices and shop.

M-Clip has seen strong growth in online sales. My ongoing work spans Shopify, Amazon and marketing—connecting how customers discover the products with how they shop and buy.

Florida Keys Outfitters / Retail & business systems

Experience from
inside the business.

Florida Keys Outfitters is a saltwater fly shop in Islamorada, where I spent about six years running the day-to-day business—with responsibility that reached well beyond the website.

I ran the website and email campaigns, along with all the internal business systems—including Lightspeed and QuickBooks. The customer experience and the day-to-day operation were both part of my job.

My role
About six years managing day-to-day operations, alongside the website, marketing and internal business systems.
Web & marketing
Responsibility for the website and email campaigns as part of running the business.
Internal systems
Hands-on responsibility for the business’s internal systems, including Lightspeed and QuickBooks.

That experience shapes how I approach a project today: understanding how the website, marketing and internal systems support the people running the business.
