23 expeditions, from real client launches to full-scale concepts, all designed, written, and coded by hand. The valley behind them is drawn live, the same way I build everything else.

Real businesses, live on their own domains, in their own words.
Before anyone drives 12 km up Broadwater Road, they want to know if the lake is calm and the store is open. This site answers both on the front page.
“He jumped right on it, figured out the problem. He rebuilt the website from scratch and made it fresh and new.”
A small non-profit's website carries most of its proof. This one puts the founders' art and writing first, with clear ways to buy a print, join or give.
“He listens to what we have in mind, quickly understands what we are trying to achieve, and often takes our ideas even further than we imagined.”
Homeowners save up small repairs and want them handled in writing. One form takes the whole repair list with photos, and one written scope comes back.
“It's easy for customers to navigate and makes my life a lot easier with all their information on the request an estimate feature.”
When a maker can make anything, customers do not know where to start. Four doors, for family, business, team or fundraiser, lead to the right order form.
“Highly Recommend Brett, He goes out of his way to make thing's perfect and with such creativity.”
Live products I built and run every day.
Regional Events Board
Finding out what is on meant checking calendar after calendar. One wall shows events across the Kootenays in time order, with who each is for and what it costs.
Regional Business Register
Kootenay business listings were scattered, stale or behind a fee. One free directory now covers the whole region, searchable by trade and by town.
Immigration Education Platform
Immigration rules lose people long before they reach the answer. The law sits beside an everyday reading of every phrase, with free tools and a date on every figure.
More products I run
Studio Website + Local Growth Platform
A web designer's own site is the first proof a buyer checks. Mine shows every package price and lets anyone test their own site free in about a minute.
Case study
App Launch Site + App in Development
My own app brand. An app nobody has heard of needs a reason to wait for it. The site hands a visitor a role, an iris print of their own and a public record worth reading before launch.
Case study
App Idea Platform (Web + iOS App)
Idea tools that flatter people send them into crowded markets. This one grades every app idea against live market data and says so when an idea runs cold.
Case study
Shopify Store
Niche shoppers leave when a store shows them the wrong dog. One tap picks their dog's coat, and the whole store leads with designs that match it.
Case study
Full-scale sites I built for industries I have not yet built for a client. Each is labelled as a concept. Pick yours.
The portfolio shows the finished public work. I build around what happens next too: clearer updates, practical guidance, client resources, and a direct line back to me when the next business question appears.
01
The portfolio shows what goes public: positioning, pages, visuals, conversion paths, and technical execution.
02
Clients keep learning, requesting updates, organizing resources, and reaching me directly after launch.
03
Before a big build, the free check-up shows what is already working, what is leaking trust, and what deserves the first move.
