About Me

I build websites that work — not just ones that look nice.

I didn't set out to start a web design business. It happened after I needed an HVAC repair.

The company was great — skilled, reliable, trustworthy. But their website was a mess. I couldn't figure out what services they offered or how to get help. I almost didn't call them because their website created too much confusion.

That's when I realized: great small businesses are losing customers not because they're bad at what they do, but because their websites don't work.

What Breakwater does differently

I build websites that:

  • Make your services crystal clear
  • Help customers take action fast
  • Turn visits into actual calls and jobs

Small service businesses don't need fancy. They need clear, fast, reliable, and effective.

Why "Breakwater"?

A breakwater protects the shoreline from chaos and creates stability.

That's what I build: strong, reliable websites that protect your business from lost opportunities.

Local businesses doing real work deserve the same quality online experience as big corporations. When your website works, customers trust you faster and your business gets the opportunities it deserves.

No fluff. No gimmicks. Just websites built to last — and built to get you more calls.
