Freelance web design and development
I design and build websites for small organizations and the internal tools behind them when email and spreadsheets stop working. The window below is the Highbridge Voices homepage, live at highbridgevoices.org.

Case study
A Bronx youth choir needed a public website that could take applications and donations, and a private portal so staff and students were not running the year out of inboxes and spreadsheets. I was the only developer. Both are in production at highbridgevoices.org.
The public site was a WordPress leftover that was hard to update. Concert pages, program applications, and donation flows kept breaking or lagging behind the season. Inside the organization, rehearsal music lived in messy unsorted cabinets and spreadsheets that kept dissapearing, the calendar was wherever someone last emailed it, and attendance and roster work happened offsite.
I rebuilt the public site programs, apply, donate, benefit concert, news and built a staff/student portal on React, Node, Express, and PostgreSQL. JWT login with roles. Announcements, calendar, choir tracks (unique IDs, A–Z, filter by voice part), roster, attendance, applications, and a music/audio library. Deployed on Vercel and Railway. I still ship the seasonal pages.
Staff and students use the portal during the school year. The public site handles enrollment and fundraising. When the benefit concert needed tickets, ads, and an electronic journal, those went onto the same site instead of a one off tool.
Selected work
A bakery storefront I designed and built as a reusable template: public menu, cart, Stripe checkout or pay on pickup, email order notices, and an admin dashboard. The live demo is not hosted yet. When it is, this window will open it.

Services
Pick the tier that matches the job. If you need a poster or a logo pack, I am not the person. If you need a site — or something with moving parts behind it — I am.
Personal site
$2,500
A public site for one person — freelancer, consultant, artist, or job-seeker. Who you are, what you have done, how to reach you.
Where most organizations land
Organization site
$6,000
Programs, events, applications, donations, and pages that change through the year. Typical for a school, clinic, or nonprofit that needs more than a personal page.
Custom
Bookings, e-commerce, memberships, internal tools, or anything with moving parts. Price depends on the job.
Process
Same sequence for every job a personal site, an organization site, or something custom. If a step is missing, the site looks finished and then nobody can run it.
Who visits, who updates the site, what people need to find, fill out, or buy. I write that down before I open a design file. A personal site, a clinic, and a membership tool all start here the answers are just different.
Sitemap first. If the job has bookings, a shop, accounts, or a dashboard, the flows and fields come next so we are not inventing them in week six. You see the structure and say what is wrong while it is still simple to change.
I design and develop the thing myself. You get a staging URL and click through before we go live and before any old site comes down, if there is one.
Sites do not freeze on launch day. Events, products, forms, and new pages show up later. I keep a maintenance relationship so those land on the same site instead of a new vendor each time.
Contact
Say which tier you think you are, who the site is for, and when you need it live. I read everything. If it is a bad fit I will say so.
