Hey There, I’m Claire…
Your
Website Designer
& Creative
Problem-Solver
I help small business owners, coaches, and creatives bring their online presence to life without the tech headaches. If the thought of building a website makes you want to run for the hills (or drown your stress in coffee and croissants), don’t worry, I’ve got you covered.
Your website isn’t just a bunch of pretty pictures and text—it’s the heart of your brand. It should feel like you, attract your dream clients, and make running your business easier, not harder.
I create custom websites that don’t just look gorgeous, they work.
My process is designed to give you clarity upfront, then take the heavy lifting off your plate.
We begin with an in-depth questionnaire and kickoff call where we clearly define your goals, vision, preferences, and priorities. This sets a strong foundation, so everything moving forward feels aligned and intentional.
We will have a mid-project check-in to ensure we’re on the right track, followed by two thoughtful rounds of revisions at the end so we can refine details and ensure everything feels right.
With a career spanning four continents, I’ve built my professional life around beauty, care, and thoughtful design. I’ve worked in luxury spas, private super yachts, and the food and hospitality world, where creativity was part of everyday life.
From designing calming spa spaces that helped increase sales to creating stunning table settings for our ultra-high-net-worth yacht guests daily, I’ve always loved bringing spaces and experiences to life in a way that feels intentional, welcoming, and memorable.
After my kids started school, I shifted into virtual assistant work so I could stay close to them while still supporting creative small business owners behind the scenes. Over time, that work naturally evolved into Squarespace website design, where I discovered I could blend my eye for aesthetics with my practical, detail-oriented approach to help businesses look polished, feel authentic, and actually work for their goals.
Today, I specialize in building and redesigning Squarespace websites for small business owners who want a site that truly reflects who they are. I take a supportive, step-by-step approach so you never feel overwhelmed, and together we create a website that works for you, your audience and your business.
I grew up in South Africa, spent 3 years living in London, UK, 5 years in Australia, where I gained my Australian Citizenship, and 6 years working on Luxury Private Yachts.
When I’m not working, you can usually find me with my husband and our two kids, enjoying slow days at home or planning our next adventure.
My love of travel has taken me around the world, immersing me in new food, cultures, and places that continue to shape my approach to design.
I’m happiest outdoors, whether I’m hiking, diving beneath the surface of the ocean, or simply settling into a good book with a glass of wine.
I am WSET Level 3 wine certified, which pairs beautifully with life here in Oregon wine country and deepens my appreciation for craft, culture, and intentional experiences.
Fun Facts About Me
“We hired Claire to build a website for our family arbor business. Claire came in with knowledge and ideas and was able to bring our vision to life beautifully. She completed the job quickly and for a very fair price. When we encountered an issue with the domain name, Claire was able to resolve it. We hired Claire again 2 years later to refresh our website as our services and needs shifted. We would happily recommend Claire for your next website project.”
