About John.
I build websites that solve problems.
Whether you’re growing a business or a movement, technology should be part of the solution, not an obstacle. At the end of the day, the best websites are the ones you don’t have to think about: they work exactly as they should, without getting in your way.
Clients and colleagues know me as a tenacious problem solver who makes complex projects manageable without the “techspeak.” Because great websites happen when creative minds collide, I love partnering with local talent. It ensures the right expertise is always in the room, making the entire process as rewarding as the final launch.
When I’m not working in my slippers, I make it a point to unplug. You’ll often find me involved in the Twin Cities music scene, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or getting lost in a history book. Stepping away from the screen is usually where the best ideas find me.
WordPress, music, and psychology:
Minneapolis designer Dan Woychick and I discuss the intersection of psychology, music, and building user-first WordPress sites.
Why stagnant websites fail:
My interview with 5 by 5 Design breaks down why treating a website like a ‘set and forget’ appliance hurts long-term business growth.
Let's work together.
Tell me what’s on your mind and I’ll show you how we can make it happen.
