Work

Problem

A brand-new studio has no client work to point to yet, and a slick mockup is easy to fake. Potential clients needed a genuinely real, currently-running example to judge — not another concept site.

Approach

Built and deployed exactly like a client project would be: Astro static output shipping close to zero JavaScript, self-hosted fonts with no Google Fonts CDN, Cloudflare Pages hosting, a working contact form backed by Turnstile spam protection and Resend delivery, and a Lighthouse CI pipeline that publishes a real, dated performance score on every deploy instead of a one-time claim.

Result

A live, publicly checkable result — the 'Built for speed' badge in the trust strip above isn't a hardcoded number, it's this exact site's real score, refreshed on every deploy and timestamped so you can see exactly when it was last checked.

Problem

Fitness studios typically need more than a single page — class schedules, instructor bios, and a blog for SEO — but most freelance builds either lock the owner out of making updates or require a bloated CMS to get there.

Approach

Built as a 6-page CMS-ready site using Astro content collections for classes and instructors, so the studio owner can add or update content without touching code, alongside a blog structure ready for ongoing SEO content.

Result

A concept build demonstrating a full multi-page structure that stays as fast as a single-page site, with content editing handled through version-controlled Markdown rather than a heavyweight CMS.

Problem

Small local businesses like bakeries often either have no website at all, or a slow template site that doesn't show up in local search and gives visitors no reason to walk in.

Approach

Built as a single-page site with a mobile-first layout: hours and location above the fold, a simple menu section, and a contact form — no unnecessary pages, no page-builder bloat, just what a visitor actually needs before they decide to visit.

Result

A concept build demonstrating sub-second load times and a 95+ Lighthouse performance score, with local business schema markup ready for real search visibility from day one.

Problem

Early-stage software products often lose signups not because the product is weak, but because the landing page buries the value proposition under generic hero copy and slow-loading animations.

Approach

Structured around a clear above-the-fold pitch, a benefits section written around outcomes rather than features, and a single, repeated call to action — built with Astro islands so the interactive pricing toggle ships almost no JavaScript to the rest of the page.

Result

A concept build demonstrating a clean, fast-loading landing page pattern that keeps the call to action visible without relying on heavy animation or tracking scripts.
