Every so often, a project comes along that is a real joy to put together, and the new website for Cochrane Home Treasures was exactly that. A non-profit thrift store serving the Cochrane community since 2002, Cochrane Home Treasures had outgrown its old site, so we rebuilt it to put the store’s impact front and centre. That includes the more than $1 million it has returned to local charities, organizations, and community initiatives over the last five years.

Built on the WordPress platform using the Divi builder, the new site takes full advantage of its unique layout potential and animation features to bring the store’s story to life. We focused on creating a clean, mobile-friendly platform that refreshes the brand for anyone looking to shop or make a donation, with clear paths to sale details, donation information, volunteer opportunities, and the community partners the store supports. It’s a warm, inviting site that reflects the store’s mission to “restore your home, restore your heart” while building a stronger, more connected Cochrane.

Over the past few months, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a group of wonderful people dedicated to preserving the stories of southeastern Alberta. So it’s with immense pleasure that I get to announce we launched the redesigned website for the Historical Society of Medicine Hat and District, which went live earlier this summer. Founded in 1947 in the home of Mayor Hector Lang, the Society has spent decades collecting the stories, artifacts, and landmarks that shape Medicine Hat and the surrounding region, and it was a privilege to help bring that legacy to a new generation online.

Built on the WordPress platform, the new site pairs a clean, mobile-friendly design with rich, historic imagery courtesy of the Esplanade Archives in Medicine Hat, giving the region’s past the visual presence it deserves. We also made the Society’s own publications a centrepiece of the experience, alongside a monthly newsletter sign-up, news and events, project pages, and an easy path to membership for those who want to get involved. Whether visitors are exploring local history or looking for their next heritage event, it’s an intuitive site designed to support the Society’s mission of connecting and honouring our community’s history.

Over the past couple of years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a handful of great companies within the Forestry industry. So it’s with immense pleasure that I get to announce Armadillo Studios has just launched the website for the 2024 Global Wood Summit.

Built on the WordPress platform and powered by a suite of WooCommerce tools for ticket sales, sponsorship registration and early bird offers, the site includes all the essential features of a modern business conference website. We focused on creating a robust, mobile-friendly platform that delivers a seamless user experience. Attendees can easily access hotel booking details, browse speaker profiles, and explore sponsor information with just a few taps. It’s a clean, intuitive site designed to support the success of the 2024 Global Wood Summit this fall.

We are thrilled to announce the successful launch of a new WordPress-powered website redesign for our friends and Vancouver-based startup, Minpraxis Solutions Ltd..

With a clean and intuitive interface, the website not only showcases Minpraxis’ cutting-edge Minpraxis Tester but also reflects its commitment to excellence in the mining and technology industry. It was a pleasure working with the team and we take immense pride in delivering a platform that sets a solid foundation for Minpraxis Solutions’ future endeavors and growth.

As a newly minted #girldad, it’s a bit special to have a small hand in something like this. Even though we’re not in Edmonton, it’s cool to see a group working to connect girls playing minor hockey.
