Objective
Web Development
We are a boutique marketing agency based in Colorado and we specialize in developing stellar websites for a variety of businesses. By partnering with other skilled creative agents, we build holistic design systems & interactive digital toolkits for awesome brands.
Founded in 2013 and led by Brittany Ansay, we have built 100s of domains, serving top creative agencies based in Colorado. Britt has worked with clients mostly based in the USA though her work has reached global audiences. We have experience serving non-profits, universities & government-related entities, startups, and Fortune 500 companies. We handcraft timelines and set a custom cadence for our clients, and we build sustainable, performant websites based on the fundamentals of human-centered design. Need a web developer? Let's chat.
We love viewports, code, and we appreciate most while in development mode. Our passion is crafting beautiful websites for the world to behold.
Services
Technical Strategy
We start with an earnest curiosity to understand your vision and co-create the project and product design that will solve problems and generate value. We set the goals and define the minimum viable product together. Then we map the milestones across the project timeline. We research keywords and review your competition closely so that your communication ecosystem talks directly to your primary audiences.
Web Development
We are platform agnostic though carry preferences, and we pair your requirements to solutions objectively. With over a decade of sharpening the blade with all the modern frameworks, browsers, toolkits... we pride ourselves on building technical solutions that are simple, sleek, and sophisticated. Each pixel, and each word matter. We ensure your end product is baked with human-centered design and packed with important core capabilities.
Technical Leadership
By understanding the lifecycle of websites and web development, we assess current situations and scope needs/goals into efficiently scaled products. With hundreds of sites developed over the last decade, we come with experience. We've built and trained teams from the ground up and will work on new projects as well as legacy accounts. We're seasoned with mentoring, server administration, performance and core vitals, accessibility and compliance, debugging, updating, deploying.
Team Development
The Gesamtkunstwerk and sum of all parts is always greater than any one cog in the system. Life is often a symphony. We grok with team pairing and collaboration. Many brilliant minds usually make memorable, successful work. From copywriting to analytics, from brand designers to marketing specialists, we combine the right talents with the right projects. While we enjoy flexing unicorn skillsets, our skills are in development and we enjoy working with others when their skillsets will compliment a project goals.

Testimonials
What our clients say about us
“Working with Brittany on our website build was wonderful, at each twist and turn her ability to guide us back on track and solve the technical challenges were humbling.”
Jack Lighton, CEO
SeaLegacy
“As a photographer who has visited over 50 countries in the last 30 years my website needed to organize my archive, showcase my new work, and work on both mobile and desktop devices. As I worked on the site with Britt it became clear that she took the time to deeply understand what I needed, and had the skills and experience to deliver a beautiful and functional web experience. I could not be happier.”
Jon McCormack, Author

“Brittany guided the successful redesign of our foundation‘s website. We were so pleased with the result, which not only conveys our branding, but also made it easy for our users to find what they need, and for staff to keep it up to date. Brittany provided creative solutions and was a delight to partner with.”
Christine Haran, Communications Director
Milbank Memorial Fund
“While I am not versed in the technical elements of web development, Brittany has blown me away with her knowledge, skills, and ability to explain her work in layman's terms and guide our team through the development process. She's a web developer genius with supreme project management skills. She efficiently and expertly created our magazine's beautiful (and highly functional) website and she seems to have a vast understanding of not just her role but everyone else's too. Icing on the cake is that she's delightful to work with.”
Miriam Stein-Battles, Editing Director
Wild Eye magazine
“Working with Brittany was a breath of fresh air after having worked with several website developers prior. Her technical know-how and natural aesthetic abilities are a rare combination. Brittany's artistic background has engendered an astute attention to detail. She brought tremendous value to the build of our website. As architects, designers, and photographers, our standards and particularities were high. Brittany handled that beautifully. She had a well-organized process, great communication, and thoughtful (patient) explanations.”
