Who We Work With
We’re a professional, fun team who thrive off passion and care IMMENSELY about what we put out into the world.
PURPOSE-DRIVEN CLIENTS
We love working with people who are on a mission to create good in the world. Passion fuels what you do, which in turn inspires our work to bring your vision to the masses. We have a sweet spot for food, fashion, fitness, health, beauty, and design brands, from startups to global empires.
DESIGN TEAMS + AGENCIES
You're great at what you do, but need a partner to provide the rest. Collaboration is something we're pretty darn good at. We're available to join in on projects from the discovery phase to development and on-going support. Embed our entire team or just who you need to make some magic happen.
Our Team
Danielle LeComte
Founder • Technical Director
Danielle is our fearless leader and head web developer. With over 14 years of experience, she's built websites for large media companies, food startups, non-profits, professional athletes, and just about anyone in between. She sweats the small details and loves it when a client cries tears of joy over a launch party Skype meeting. When not in the office, you can find her on the VCU campus visiting her daughter, practicing her skills in the kitchen, or fostering rescue pugs. Coffee is a no-no, but herbal and green teas are her jam.
Extended Team
Designers • Developers • Copywriters
We work with a diverse team of experts to meet the needs of projects of varying sizes.
Our Culture
Work Hard, Play Hard, Be Nice
As much as we love the work that we do, we're also committed to living fulfilled lives. It keeps our team happy and energized so that when we're knee deep in your project, we're focused and on-point. We strive to build relationships based on mutual respect and honesty, and follow a core set of values on every project.
01.
Honesty
Communication and transparency can move mountains. We never take on work we can't deliver, and if we make a mistake, we speak up.
02.
Trust
Trust is a two-way street and vital to any good relationship. You trust in our expertise when you hire us, and we work hard to keep it.
03.
Quality
You don't always get what you pay for. Often times you get more. We don't do average and enjoy the opportunity to overdeliver.
04.
Respect
We treat people how we want to be treated, and expect the same in return. No matter what your title, you're a person first and foremost.
