Websites for small businesses, everywhere
Most people look you up before they ever walk through your door. I build sites that load fast, look the part, and make it easy for people to reach you.
Someone's looking you up right now. If your site is slow, confusing, or hard to read — they don't call. They just pick whoever's next on the list.
The work
A few sites I've designed and built for small businesses.
Life science consulting
A full landing page for a pharma consulting firm — built to communicate authority, capture program leads, and convert visitors into conversations.

How it works
No kickoff calls. No discovery phase. No jargon. Fill out a short form, and I send back a real working page built for your business.
Step 1
A short form — takes two minutes. Your name, your business, what you do.
Step 2
A working page designed for your specific business — ready to launch or refine together.
Step 3
Two rounds of revisions. Send a list of everything you'd adjust, and we make it right.
Step 4
Domain, SSL, Google listing sorted. The keys are yours — and the care plan keeps it running.
Pricing
You know what it costs before we ever speak. Every build includes hosting setup, Google listing cleanup, and a site that looks right on any screen.
One beautiful page. For businesses that mainly need to be found, called, and driven to.
Four to six pages. For businesses with a menu, a service list, or a story worth telling properly.
For businesses that take bookings, sell online, or need the site to do a real job.
Hosting, backups, SSL, and any change you want made. You send a note, we take it from there. Month to month, cancel anytime.
What people say
Marina took my boring website and made it custom and fun. She was so easy to work with and really understood my needs. She went above and beyond what I was expecting. I would recommend her work time and time again.
Marina killed it. I don't know a damn thing about building websites, but she made ours look incredible. The site went live and almost immediately we started hearing from new clients. Couldn't ask for a better outcome.
Marina was a true partner throughout our website build. She delivered a polished, professional site that accurately represents my business and positions us for future growth.
The person behind it
I grew up in Kauai, Hawaii, surrounded by small businesses. The kind where the owner answers the phone, does the books, helps customers, and is still the last one to lock the door at night.
Watching those businesses taught me something early: the fanciest website rarely wins. The businesses that grow are the ones that make it easy for people to understand what they do, trust them, and take the next step.
That's the approach I bring to every project. I care about clean design, but I care even more about building something that actually works for your business. A website should help you get found, earn trust, and bring in customers — not just sit online looking pretty.
I keep the studio intentionally small. By working with only a handful of clients each month, I can give each project the attention it deserves and build something that genuinely reflects the people behind the business.
Before you ask
There isn't one. You fill out a short form, I build a real draft for your specific business, and send it over. If you like it, we talk. If you don't, you've lost nothing but the two minutes it took to fill it in.
Your existing site stays live and untouched the whole time we build. On launch day we only point the web records at the new site — the mail records stay exactly where they are. Killing a client's email is the most common agency mistake. We don't make it.
Not directly, and that's deliberate. Sites built for anyone to edit drift out of shape within a year. Instead you send us the change and we make it, usually the same day, included in the care plan. If you'd rather have a login, say so up front and we'll build it that way.
You do — the domain, the content, and the site itself. If you ever want to leave, we'll hand it over and help you move it. We'd rather keep you because you want to stay.
Two rounds of revisions are included in every build, and nothing goes live until you've said yes. If the free draft misses completely, you walk away having spent nothing.
Yes — we work with small businesses everywhere. Most of the work happens remotely; location doesn't matter as long as the fit is right.
Free, no catch
Fill out the short form below. I'll build a real draft for your business and send it over — no meeting, no commitment. Like it and we'll talk. Don't, and you've lost nothing.
