Who I am

About Me

Full-stack developer based in Indianapolis. I build things that work for real people.

I'm Jon — a freelance web developer based in Indianapolis, and I got into this work because I genuinely like helping people solve real problems. The internet is where most businesses live or die today, and too many owners are stuck with sites that look fine but don't actually do anything for them. My goal is to change that: I build websites and web apps that make someone's day easier, bring in more of the right customers, and give owners back a sense of control over their own digital presence.

My process is built around clarity from the very first conversation. I start by listening — really listening — to what you're trying to accomplish, who you're trying to reach, and what's already frustrating you about your current setup. From there I scope the work honestly, give you a fixed quote and a realistic timeline, and then build in the open with a live preview you can check at any time. There are no surprise invoices, no weeks of radio silence, and no grand reveals that miss the mark. You'll know exactly where things stand the whole way through.

I tend to work best with small businesses, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and side-project founders who are ready to invest in something real but don't want the overhead of a big agency. Most of my clients come to me after a drag-and-drop builder stopped keeping up — pages got slow, edits became a headache, and the site stopped bringing in work. Others are starting from scratch and want to do it right the first time. Either way, I treat your project like it's my own, because your success is what makes this work meaningful.

With four years of website building experience behind me, I bring a solid foundation alongside a constant drive to keep learning. The industry never stops growing — new tools, better practices, and smarter ways to solve problems show up every month — and I make it a point to grow right along with it so my clients always get the best out of me.

Long-term, I want to be the kind of developer people trust not just for clean code, but for honest advice and a steady hand when technology feels overwhelming. I do this work because I believe the right website can remove stress, create opportunity, and give people back time and confidence — and that's worth building carefully.
