About Me
Hello! I'm Hershey Agustin, a web designer and developer based in Edmonton, Alberta. I have a deep appreciation for connecting with others and understanding their needs, which drives my passion for creating designs that really connect.Over time, I was drawn to web design because I enjoy building websites and staying updated with evolving technologies and trends.
My design approach focuses on creating simple, readable, and accessible websites. I use fonts, colors, and contrasts to make designs visually appealing and user-friendly while always keeping navigation and interaction in mind. I’ve worked on various projects to strengthen my web design and development skills.
Outside of work, I enjoy travelling and learning about different cultures. These experiences give me fresh perspectives and inspire my designs. I believe that understanding diverse cultures helps me create websites that connect with a wider audience.
I create websites that engage your audience and support your business goals. I’m always open to collaborating and exploring creative opportunities. If you'd like to discuss design or website building, feel free to reach out. Let’s connect!
