My Story

I started Innovative Web Designs because I enjoyed building websites and saw a need for something simpler and more practical for small businesses.

I started my first small business at 19 and spent most of my working life as a tradie running my own business. Over the years, I built that business to the point where I was regularly employing around 30 men, which gave me a strong understanding of how small businesses actually operate and what matters day to day.

Before forming Innovative Web Designs in 2016, I spent time learning and experimenting with web design after helping build a website and realising I genuinely enjoyed the process. What began as an interest quickly turned into something I wanted to do properly.

Since forming Innovative Web Designs in 2016, I’ve focused on building brochure-style websites that are easy to manage, load fast on mobile, and make it simple for customers to get in touch.

I work directly with my clients from first chat to launch day. No account managers, no upselling, and no jargon — just practical advice and websites that do their job.

Experience & Certifications

I’ve been building and refining websites since 2016, working primarily with small businesses, tradies, and community organisations that need a professional online presence without unnecessary complexity.

Over the years, I’ve designed and delivered websites across a broad range of industries, including:

  • trade and service-based businesses,

  • a community website for a residential unit complex,

  • a local barbershop,

  • a professional photographer,

  • and a retail florist.

This variety has given me a strong understanding of how different businesses communicate, what their customers look for, and how a website should be structured to support those goals.

My experience covers:

  • WordPress Website Development
    Building reliable, easy-to-manage websites using WordPress as a long-term platform for growing businesses and community groups.

  • Elementor Design & Responsive Layouts
    Creating clean, modern layouts with Elementor that work seamlessly across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.

  • On-Page SEO & Page Structure
    Structuring pages so search engines can clearly understand services, locations, and intent, while keeping the content readable for real people.

  • Performance & Mobile Optimisation
    Ensuring sites load quickly, function smoothly on mobile, and provide a good user experience for visitors on the go.

  • Ongoing Support & Maintenance
    Assisting clients with updates, improvements, and ongoing care as their needs evolve over time.

I continue to upskill and stay current with WordPress, Elementor, and SEO best practices, ensuring the websites I build remain secure, reliable, and aligned with modern web standards.

The certifications shown here support what matters most — practical experience building websites that work for everyday businesses and local communities.
