Every month, my work is seen and used by hundreds of thousands of people. I am available for hire with building new web sites, and managing existing sites, help with updates, consulting, new features, training, etc…
I work with directly with business owners to build streamlined, effective web sites. I also work with advertising agencies and marketing consultants on their clients' sites.
The large majority of my projects are built using Wordpress, Drupal, and Joomla, although I also support Magento, OSCommerce, and almost any other open-source platform.

I found it fulfilling to work with Covington Creations, as the ideas and design I had in mind became reality on the website. Nate was able to translate them into working order, and hence we have a website that is easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye. I found it extremely helpful to begin working with a template, and from there we were able to launch into a more expansive, individualized design. The result was that the integration of our ideas and a willingness to be flexible and malleable gave the Oneray website pizzazz and style.

I want to take a brief moment to write up some important points to consider when dealing with securing digital communications.
Many of these items have come to light after Edward Snowden (bravely) came forward and contradicted what Obama told Leno: “We don’t have a domestic spying program.” As you are (hopefully) well aware, this is 100% false.

We are a unique organization and have different needs and Nate was very willing to learn about our organization and how it is structured. In working with him there are three things that stood out:
From beginning to end it was a good experience.
