Testimonials

Read the Impact Story
What a great pleasure to work Jesse! We couldn't have asked for a better volunteer. He's an amazing web developer. Skilled both in web design, branding and web development. He designed and built our website, and exceeded our expectations by far. Jesse had the right skillset but most importantly he had the right mindset to help. He was patient, kind and understanding, as we are a team of people with little background in web design/development. We only knew we wanted a website and we had a Strategic Plan as the materials. Jesse helped us narrow down the information to the essentials that would go on the website. He was able to synthesize the materials to fit nicely and neatly the website. Grateful to have found and worked with Jesse!
