I am now a full-time freelancer and owner of Emerge Web Studio. I’m into my second week now and things are going great, I’ve had a ton of great phone calls and meetings. Waking up for work has become really exciting. With all that being said, I look forward to showing you all the great things I’m doing.

Emerge Web Studio

Now it’s time to sell you…
Emerge specializes in attractive website design for businesses, developers and agencies. I know the web really well, so as a standard my sites are always easy to update, optimized for search, and ready to promote your business (as long as it’s not shady).

I do, I do a lot. Laughter can get me through the day sometimes. I have some hilarious co-workers. There is joy wrapped up in laughing together, a deeper connection beyond agreeing that body sounds are funny.

On the other side, what happened to deep intelligent conversation? The kind where you just want to take a seat on the couch together with a cup of joe (or tea). In a world of 140 character messages I fear that we’ve (I’ve) traded deep meaningful conversation for effortless shouts. We don’t allow for our perspectives to be changed, only voiced.

With that being said, we should take some time and talk about life over coffee. No phone calls, no texts, no tweets.

I wanted something that was a bit more personal and I always felt like my last design was a bit too “corporate.” I have a few pictures that I’ve taken sampled throughout some of the backgrounds, and just an overall warmer feel. Still a bit of a work in progress, let me know if you have any suggestions!

The Old Design

Along with the design changes I decided to ditch Textpattern and head back over to WordPress. The latest WP changes have been great and the platform has become so much more flexible since the pre-2.5 days. Hopefully Textpattern will begin some updates for us, but in the meantime I’m definitely happy sticking with WordPress for a while.
