no templates. customized just for you.
We work together to make a custom designed website that stands out from the crowd. You have unique business needs so I create a one-of-a-kind site to match—no designs are ever repeated. On top of that, I’ll reflect your style. From clean and modern to ornate and stylish, the site should look like you. We’ll discuss what you really want, and need, so both you and your customers are happy.
good code. great functionality.
Behind the scenes, you’ll have confidence your site is well organized, moves smoothly, and takes very little time to load. With clear usability principles, I deliver sites that are easy to navigate and welcoming to your customers. I specialize in Flash and don’t support HTML or e-commerce.
change images and text yourself.
The time I take to code your site properly from the beginning makes it easy for you to adjust elements in the future with simple instructions from me. Why shouldn’t you have the flexibility to maintain your site on your own as your business grows?

I’m excitable. I geek out on writing new algorithms, play 'I Spy' with the fonts and pantone colors peppering San Francisco, and am just as likely to be making a brush stroke as a mouse stroke. I’m inspired by the clever.
I’m driven. My clients are world class in their own right, so it’s not easy making them look better. Armed with a BS in CS from the College of Enginerds at UCSB, a touch of OCD, and a right-brain that pleads for everything to be pretty, I’m on it.
I’m real. Team meetings at dstripe include you, me and my reluctant cat, Leo. (Typos? Oh, they’re his.) That’s it. We’ve been making flash happen for ten years and loving every day. Drop me a line. I’m in.

Tell me a bit about you and what you’re looking for. With the basics covered we can get down to the fun stuff.
in the industry?
Do you do logos, print work, blogs, html, e-commerce, flash, or are you just plain cool? We should be friends. Hit me up and let me know who you are.
just want to say hello?
Or maybe you have a question. That’s cool, too.
