Hi, I'm Helena. I build clean, functional websites for small businesses and individuals. I care about thoughtful design, clear communication, and delivering quality work.

I work with a small number of clients at a time so I can give each project the attention it deserves. Beyond coding, I enjoy reading, science, art, and gaming — and I occasionally write about things that interest me on Medium.
