Hello. I’m Jackie.

🌿 37 | Jackie | Mother | Gardener
🌸 Resilience in bloom
🌱 Strength beneath the soil
🎗️ Fighting lymphoma with love + grit

I’m Jackie—a designer, developer, gardener, storyteller, and cancer warrior. With over 10 years of experience building WordPress and WooCommerce websites, I help creatives, small businesses, and soulful brands bring their ideas to life online. I’m endlessly inspired by the beauty of nature, a fresh bloom in the garden, a well-placed headline, or a moment of truth shared through content. Whether I’m planting dahlias or designing a site that converts, I do it with heart, purpose, and a deep belief in the power of creativity.

In 2025, I was diagnosed with lymphoma—a life-altering chapter that has become part of my story, not the end of it. Through treatment and healing, I’ve found even more clarity about what matters: slowing down, showing up, and creating with intention. Now, I use my platform to not only build websites and grow gardens but to share my journey with honesty and hope. If you’re looking for a web partner who brings both skill and soul—you’ve found her.
