"Creating a variety of websites has a very fun side. My curiosity serves me to learn more about each business and that always filters into the website. I can ask the questions website visitors are seeking when they arrive at a website. One of the purposes of your business website is to educate the visitor, or answer questions. It is fun to dig into a business and all it's components!
I enjoy my clients and value their business. They put their trust in me to help them make choices related to the changing Internet and terminology they don't have time to figure out. Owning my own business I fully understand a budget." —Brenda

Whether a basic website or moving into media elements a website has many elements which require multiple software usage. Illustrator is a wonderful tool to create vector art and smooth gradients, Photoshop corrects, repairs and manipulates digital images and photo scans, while Flash can create web videos, from simple slide shows to more complex animated graphics to full websites. All these become the visual side of your website. The code which makes it all appear online is another element using CSS styling, HTML, PHP, perl and JavaScript code to name a few.
For graphic design InDesign is a powerful layout and design program. Create a flyer or print ad to match your website. To further expand creativity Brenda uses multi music and video editing programs (Adobe Premiere, After Effects, ProShow, Magix). Brenda continues reaching, growing and discovering new ways to create through multi-media. Certified: Photoshop, Flash and Illustrator.
