Website Hosting & Apache Servers
I currently host my company website, in addition to client sites on an Apache-based server with access to C-panel as well as WHM (WebHost Manager). I have a above average understanding of FTP, SSH, SSL, DNS, PHP, HTML, CSS, & some JSON

Digital Marketing & Marketing Automation
My areas of digital marketing expertise are in email marketing, lead capture & list building, marketing automation, and customer retention campaigns/nurture campaigns

To me, brand development is the most important part of starting a new business. My skills range from logo design to creating style sheets & brand guidelines to promoting a cohesive look and message all the way through researching true target markets
Data Interpretation, Collection, and Light Analysis
The range of my skills here is installing tracking scripts into web pages, viewing data collected by tracking software or another means, interpreting data, forecasting trends based on past data, compiling the data into an easy-to-understand format, and helping clients understand the data & to reallocate or reinforce efforts and funds.
Most Recent Projects
These are four of my most recent WordPress Design & Development projects that I have been hired to do within the last six months. Any incomplete work is due to client non-payment or lack of content promised by client, but never delivered to me.
