Hi, I’m Steven. Let’s Build Your Story Online.
I’m a Brooklyn-based digital creator and Squarespace web designer, deeply passionate about translating unique narratives into impactful online presences. My journey has spanned various creative mediums, all converging on one goal: helping you tell your story effectively, beautifully, and authentically online.
My Journey: From Creative Roots to Digital Foundations
Creativity has always been my compass. From drawing in schoolbooks and early 2000s blogging and writing short stories, to teaching myself graphic design and immersing myself in podcasting in 2016 — the drive to bring ideas to life has been a constant. I’ve become especially passionate about the power of storytelling, particularly appreciating narratives from underrepresented groups within the Black community.
A strong web presence was always essential for my own ventures, whether for blogging or selling merchandise. This hands-on experience, coupled with three invaluable years as an employee at Squarespace, cemented my focus on web design. I gained deep insight into what different website builders offer, the crucial role of thorough planning, and most importantly, how to genuinely connect with visitors through a thoughtful online experience.
My Philosophy &
What Drives Me
My web design philosophy is straightforward: clarity, conciseness, and visual appeal. I believe a website should be your most effective ‘online resume’ — a direct, proper representation of you or your brand, designed to make an immediate impact. My core values of clarity, efficiency, collaboration, and quick turnaround times guide every project from start to finish.
Championing Underrepresented Voices with Accessible Design
I am especially passionate about supporting Black inidivudals, particularly Black women, in establishing their impactful online presences. I believe everyone deserves access to quality design, which is why I aim to provide a more affordable option with transparent flat fees and minimal surcharges for those operating with smaller budgets. Your unique story deserves to be seen and heard, beautifully and effectively.
Interests & Inspirations
When I’m not crafting websites, I’m a laid-back individual with a calm demeanor and a quick, sarcastic wit. My passions extend to the world of TV and film, fashion, and the art of interior decorating. You’ll often find me experimenting in the kitchen with cooking and baking, exploring new dining spots, or soaking in culture at museums and art exhibits.
My personal style and approach are also deeply influenced by my love for rap music and hip-hop culture, and my roots being born and raised in Brooklyn, NY have instilled a unique perspective that I bring to all my creative endeavors.
My diverse background and client-focused approach mean your website will be more than just a presence—it will be a powerful tool for connection and growth. Whether you’re a therapist looking for a compassionate online space, or any individual or business ready for a website that truly represents your vision, I’m ready to collaborate.
