About

My style

Responsive layouts

Design and code should respond to the user's behavior and environment, accomodating for resolution, image size, and scripting abilities.

Easy-to-use interfaces

The user interface should minimize the time it takes to accomplish a task, be intuitive and easy to learn, and be satisfying to use.

Clean & sleek style

No matter which style best fits your needs, from bold and retro to flat and vibrant, the design should be concise and consistent.

Hi! My name is Jo Anne.

I designed my first website back in 1997: a Sailormoon fansite complete with animated GIFs, image maps, and even the infamous blink tag. I continued to design and develop websites as a hobby, and over time, improved my style and technique. I started working as a professional web designer in 2006. Since then, I've worked with a number of clients ranging from small businesses and startups to large corporate and government entities.

I am a web designer and developer who specializes in user interface design and user experience. I am passionate about what I do, and I strive to create attractive and usable interfaces.
