The Freelancer balancing a 9-5 Starter Pack 💼
Since 2020 doing both, full time job and freelancing, and these are my NON NEGOTIABLE:
• A contract that protects my work and mental health. 📝
• Motivational Spotify playlists that help me get through the working hours. 🎧
• A pricing sheet that answers before I overthink. 🤑
• Brandbook and presentation templates to deliver fast without reinventing the wheel. ⚡
• ChatGPT trained on my pricing sheet and my tone to write emails while I do my laundry. 🧠
Freelancing for me is boundaries, saving money for personal goals, and switching Slack accounts like it’s a personality disorder. 🤭

Big appreciation to Dan, Dustin, Andrew, and the whole crew for the smooth, professional collaboration. Always good when strong writing meets strong production.

I’m rebuilding a school website inside an old XSL-based CMS with little documentation. This is not just visual cleanup or front-end polish. I’m restructuring templates, cleaning output, and improving maintainability at the system level.
Not covering problems with fresh paint — actually fixing what makes the site fragile. And then trying to fit that into labels like Web Design, Front-End, CMS, or Web Development.
