Creating a professional website often requires a web designer, web developer, copyeditor and a photographer. I offer all four services and have over a decade of experience creating professional websites.

website designer

With a background in artificial intelligence, and my experience as a cognitive neuroscientist / editor-in-chief / photographer I have both the technical knowledge and creative skills to make websites that are beautiful, mobile and user-friendly, and easy to manage.

Creating a website involves a lot of things. Well-written text, good code, photos, etc. Without a guide, the creative journey can be quite a challenge. 

I created my first website more than 30 years ago and know my way around well by now. Let me be your guide to create something that is truly eye-catching!

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes. I’ve used other CSMs in the past such as WordPress, but Squarespace has many advantages over the rest:

    • It’s a joy to use and it looks amazing

    • It is a much more secure platform

    • After website launch, it requires little or no maintenance

  • Not at all. The packages are meant as a guideline. Each website is unique and therefore deserves (and gets) a custom approach.

  • This kind of sounds like a joke, but in fact:

    • I’m a photographer and visual artist myself.

    • I was a cognitive neuroscientist for 27 years.

    • I was employed by the University Medical Center Groningen for 20 years.

    In my scientific career, I spent many years exploring how text and images are perceived by others. What grabs attention and how do you hold it? A good website consists of a mix of creativity, psychology and technological innovation, elements that have always fascinated me immensely. This is why I really enjoy creating websites that are not only beautiful, but also mobile- and user-friendly, and easy to manage. Does that sound like a match? Then please get in touch soon!

  • After the discovery call and acceptance of my offer, you will receive an invoice of 50% of the expected costs. Website development will start right after you have paid through bank transfer. When your website is ready to launch, the second invoice with the remaining cost will be sent with the remaining cost. When paid, the website will go live and your 30 days of free mail support will start.

I will help you
