The Local Butcher Shop
The Local Butcher Shop in Berkeley’s Gourmet Ghetto sells high quality, sustainable meat and poultry, all sourced locally within 150 miles of the store!
They needed a revision to their basic wordpress.com site. I created a design for them by customizing a responsive (mobile-friendly) WordPress theme, with the goal of giving users a similar experience to actually being in the store, through the use of hand-drawn chalkboard elements (which are present throughout) and photography, and migrated the site to a reliable WordPress-optimized host (wpengine).
Recently, they were ranked 3rd out of the 25 best butcher shops in the country!

Ella Baker Center for Human Rights
Ella Baker Center is an Oakland, CA grassroots organization focused on social justice, green jobs, community building events and youth empowerment.
I worked with Ella Baker Center for Human Rights to redesign their site to better highlight their campaign work, as well as provide a more cohesive look & feel throughout the site that was lacking in their previous site. They’re the kind of organization I feel very proud to have worked with, and whose mission I want to help succeed with my design work.

Gingerleaf Floral
Gingerleaf Floral was a floral design studio based in Oakland, CA specializing in weddings, celebrations and corporate accounts and events.
Ellen Kim, Gingerleaf Floral’s owner, needed to update her site design to better highlight her portfolio – I implemented a new WordPress theme for her that made use of all the amazing photographs taken at weddings of her work and made them the visual centerpiece for the users to see when they first come on the website.
Gingerleaffloral.com was featured on the showcase page for the theme it was built / designed with (The Theme Foundry’s Make).

Outward Bound Peacebuilding
Outward Bound Peacebuilding is a sub-organization of Outward Bound whose mission is simple: to bring together youth and leaders of the future from societies in conflict (e.g.- Israelis and Palestinians) and send them on an Outward Bound course.
I redesigned their site by customizing a premium wordpress theme and migrated their content to wordpress. Using the premium theme as a basis for the design made the site cost-effective and quick to build.
