Darlene Hutton

“Catherine built two websites for us and working with her was a true joy. She is detail-oriented, creative, problem-solving, attentive. She walked us through everything and when unexpected details cropped up, she always brainstormed a workaround. When we first approached her to make our sites, I didn’t know what I didn’t know but Catherine knew the whole way through. Thanks for ably guiding us through, Catherine! We look forward to working with you again.”

I cannot recommend her work more. Thank you, Catherine, for all of your help and hard work. You were so patient, and I absolutely love the outcome.”
