Chef Mike
Hey There.
I’m Chef Mike, a seasoned professional in the realms of graphic design and web design & development.
My specialization lies in utilizing WordPress, although I possess a commendable proficiency in various content management systems (CMS) and HTML/CSS. For graphic design endeavors, I adeptly employ Adobe software to ensure a high standard of visual excellence.
With a keen ability to swiftly comprehend project scopes, I excel in autonomously leading initiatives from conceptualization to completion.
While my initial foray into these fields was largely self-taught, I formalized my expertise by undertaking a comprehensive graphic design and multimedia program at the College of the Canyons in Valencia, CA, from 2009 to 2012.
Beyond my formal education, I have honed a diverse skill set and mastery of multiple software applications, enabling me to deliver top-notch results without compromising on budget considerations. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to collaborate with you on bringing your next visionary project to fruition.
I hope we can work together.

All websites include – Custom Designed Site, Optimized Images, SEO Compliance, Free Email Account & $30 Monthly Maintenance.
$30 Maintenance covers 2 Hours of Service per month (does not stack after 90 Calendar Days).
The monthly maintenance is mandatory on my servers. If you wish to stay hosted on your own server you may, but you will be charged per task or task list at $60 per hour unless otherwise agreed upon with your service package. This is Not an option to do yourself. I have already heard all that and you will never manage it properly.
Trade Packages
If you are lacking in the startup budget realm and have a trade skill or would like to barter for a website trade (I provide the same level of service regardless), then these packages are for you.
Pay for the setup cost & the rest is trade.

There is no guarantee that you will have a trade or service that I will want to barter for a website.
I will not entertain the idea of websites that have products for sale in trade for profits at a later time.
All trades & barters are per basis their own costs of the trade and/or barter(s).
