A Strategic Approach

Every business has a unique story, audience, and set of goals. Together, we’ll uncover what makes your business different and identify the best way to communicate that value online.

Through a collaborative process, we’ll make thoughtful decisions about content, design, and user experience — creating a website that reflects who you are and supports your business objectives.

My goal is to bridge the gap between business, design and the end user

Meet Julie

Since starting JFW Designs in 2009, I have intentionally remained a company of one. This allows me to be more responsive and resourceful, focusing on the details while keeping the big picture in mind. I believe thoughtful planning and clear communication lead to better decisions and better results.

I work with small businesses across the nation and also partner with tech and marketing companies. Beyond my experience and education in marketing, design and code, ongoing learning is critical so that I can continuously align my skills with client needs and adapt when the marketplace changes.

How I Work

Deliver a seamless experience

I listen carefully, communicate openly, and follow through on my commitments. I handle the details and simplify the process so you can stay focused on running your business.

Build partnerships

Long-term relationships are built on mutual respect and consistency. I care as much about the experience of working together as I do about the results.

Explore, learn and grow

If I thought of it yesterday, it’s probably not good enough today. I’m always looking for a better solution, a stronger design, or a new skill to learn.

Enjoy the process

Every project is ultimately about people. When the communication is easy and the expectations are clear, the process becomes more enjoyable, and the work is better.

Giving Back, Giving First

In 2009, I partnered with Peters Township High School Soccer — an organization that has meant a lot to my family since the 1980s. Many website versions and designs later, I’m always excited to be part of promoting soccer in the community.

I continue to support local booster and sports clubs with free or highly discounted rates for design services. Working with nearly twenty groups, most for over a decade, I’m honored they trust me to help tell their story through design.
