Mannie Schumpert

For stalkers or the terribly bored:

I love making the web better.

And that’s what I aim to do with every project, whether it’s a new site from the ground up or a facelift for an existing one.

I most often develop using WordPress, and focus on making sites both beautiful and practical, utilizing forward-thinking techniques such as responsive design, which, when done right, makes a site accessible and attractive on any device currently in existence or yet to be released.

Interested in building a website or need WordPress customization/consultation?

A website supporting a fundraising event for local charity organization SideWalk Chalk. The site was designed to reflect the youth-oriented nature of the organization, and includes whimsical chalk-style drawings and bold colors. Custom WordPress features were developed to encourage fundraising via a team-based fundraising competition.

The site garnered a lot of attention and many compliments for the organization, and helped increase the event’s fundraising results by 771% compared to the previous year.
