Overview
You've written the book. Now you need a website that does it justice — one that pulls readers in, grows your audience, and gives your work the online home it deserves.
The problem is that many author websites are either DIY and forgettable or overbuilt and hard to maintain. You shouldn't have to choose between professional and practical.
That's where I come in. I build Squarespace websites rooted in the StoryBrand framework, which means before anything goes on the page, we get clear on your reader, your message, and what you want your site to do. The result is a site that's clean, intentional, and built to convert visitors into loyal fans.
You can expect clear communication, a process that doesn't require you to speak tech, and a finished site you're proud to share.

Projects
David I. Photography | Photographer Portfolio Website
David I. Muir is a Jamaica-born photographer whose lens captures culture, people, and place across events, portraits, lifestyle, and street photography. He needed a clean, image-forward portfolio site that showcased his range of work and made it easy for clients to book sessions. I built the Squarespace site from scratch, designing a minimal, photography-first experience organized across five distinct galleries, with integrated booking and client access.
Skylark The Film | Documentary Film Website
Skylark is a feature-length documentary by award-winning director Mignotae Kebede, loosely based on the memoir White Women Cry & Call Me Angry by Dr. Yanique Redwood. The film follows Dr. Redwood's radical journey toward healing after a decade of confronting racism in the philanthropic sector. The filmmakers needed a site that conveyed the weight and intimacy of the film while supporting private screening bookings and community building. I built the Squarespace site from scratch, creating a visually immersive experience that introduces the film, highlights the creative team, promotes private screenings, and grows the film's insider community through email list integration.
Dr. Sue and You | Author Platform and Book Store
Dr. Sue is a Jamaican-born motivational speaker, poet, and multi-genre author whose books span memoir, Jamaican poetry, and devotional writing. She needed a platform that reflected her vibrant personality and supported her mission to educate, entertain, and elevate. I built her Squarespace site from scratch in 2016, designing a full author platform that includes her bookstore, blog, speaking services, and event listings. The site serves as the hub for her "Culture Corner" community and supports ongoing book sales benefiting her charitable foundation.
Pieces of Jamaica | Coffee Table Book Website Genres: Photography, Travel, Humanities & Social Sciences
Pieces of Jamaica is a celebrated coffee-table book featuring over 200 photographs that capture the beauty, culture, and people of Jamaica. The authors needed a site to drive pre-orders, showcase the book's visual story, and build community around Jamaica's 60th anniversary of independence. I built the Squarespace site from scratch, creating a visually immersive experience that reflects the book's photography-forward identity. The site includes a full e-commerce store, photo gallery, event listings, press section, and email list integration. The book has received endorsements from Jamaica's Tourism Board, Grammy-winning artists, and government officials.
Dr. Tricia Collins | Children's Author Website Genres: Children's, Middle Grade
Dr. Tricia Collins is a Jamaican-born educator and prolific children's book author whose books are used in literacy programs across schools. She needed a website that showcased her growing catalog, communicated her mission, and allowed her to sell books directly to readers and educators. I built her Squarespace site from scratch in 2015, creating a clean, welcoming space that presents her books, her story, and her heart for children's literacy. The site includes an integrated bookstore and testimonials from students, parents, and educators. Dr. Collins has managed the site independently ever since.
