My wife and I retained Aretha to build a website for a new business I was starting. Five minutes into our initial Zoom to discuss the project, I was certain we had made the right choice. Aretha exudes competence and professionalism, and is very personable to boot. After asking us lots of questions so she could get a real sense of what we wanted and liked in terms of appearance and style for the site, she made a point of zeroing in on things we didn't like. She then had a mock-up for us to look at two days later! During that Zoom, we were able to make some slight adjustments but she truly captured our vision for the site perfectly. Aretha is not only great at what she does from a technical standpoint, she delivers when she says she will and just as important to me, she is great at communication and seemingly always available to answer questions. And she was able to talk me out of a few ideas I had without making me defensive! I could not recommend Aretha more highly. read more

Aretha is the real deal. Our thriving business needed a new website, review sites setup (Yelp etc.) and a social media presence. It was a challenge finding someone we "clicked" with that was sharp and on top of things with a creative eye. One of Aretha's clients introduced her to us and we're so glad he did! After connecting with Aretha she "got" our brand and the direction we are looking to take our business. She listened to what we wanted and gave us ideas and suggestions on how to make things great, which resulted in a fantastic website and the feedback from our tribe has been amazing! We're so pleased with Aretha's professionalism and hard work that we've retained her to work on several additional big projects for us. If you're looking for a top notch website designer who is highly responsive, affordable, fun to work with and who cares about your business as much as you do, hire Aretha, now! You wouldn't be disappointed! read more
