    Story

    I'm August, a designer based in Southern Oregon.I work with businesses that care about how they're represented online—from contractors and local service companies to wellness brands and creative businesses.My approach is simple: understand the business first, then build something that feels thoughtful, intentional, and easy to use.I don't believe in chasing design trends or overcomplicating websites. The goal isn't to impress other designers—it's to help your customers feel confident choosing you.
