Testimonial

Angela D. —

“Maya is a master at her craft. Creating beauty and life in a way that comes alive as a representation of one’s business. I highly recommend her work.”

Whitney Retter Photography —

“Hiring Maya was honestly the biggest but best investment I made in my business and myself. She believed in me and was excited to create something meaningful together. It was more than just another job for her. She was passionate about not only her work but also my work.

I feel proud and confident about my business now. I am no longer scared to show people my website. It is so perfect and I could have never done it alone.”

Lovebound —

“I really can't say enough how excited I am about how this shaped up. The strategy phase of this work was so important. It really helped me wrap my arms around the product and the brand. Ultimately, working on the values I believe was so integral to this design process. I love how it is all tied in and together.

Working with Maya was so much more than just building a website. She helped me develop my brand and concept in a way I wasn't expecting. More than a joy to work with, her thoughtfulness, approach and style are true talents. I am over the moon with the final product.”

Cloudbreak Yoga —

“We have been approached to be featured on the local news based solely off their impression from our website... so that says A LOT! Our clients love the new look, the staff are energized and have more confidence in their workplace, and I believe we will get more media attention.

In working with Maya you'll receive a knock-out website (huge impact for business) and far greater clarity in how you message your business (priceless). Maya's approach is deep and thoughtful. Maya herself is professional and inspirational. The process is highly involved and worth every minute and dollar. I can't recommend Maya and her service more!”

Kay Ley Collective —

“Maya makes you dig into your deep soul and ask specific questions you would never think would make a difference in the overall aesthetic of your brand. I have come to realize how much of this I need.”
