Three companies, three different relationships. The roles below are quoted from each company’s own site, because a portfolio is the easiest place in the world to quietly promote yourself.

Websites that actually work.
Their words, not mine
A rural Texas design shop for the trades — contractors, local services, and the people who build the physical world. Web design, application work, retainers, fractional marketing leadership, and search. The pitch is deliberately unglamorous: you build houses, fix cars, or sell cattle; somebody else should handle the internet part.
I founded it. The company's own About page names me as the owner, and describes bringing enterprise-standard work to businesses in the counties around North Zulch.

Websites built with grit.
Their words, not mine
The Texas arm of Appalachia Digital — search, site builds, paid media, automation, and reporting for contractors, law firms, land and agriculture businesses, and manufacturers. Same standard of work as the parent company, different ground.
I lead the Texas side of the business. Their About page states that I personally review every strategy request that comes through the studio and follow up with the roadmap, and I am the only person named in the organization’s structured data.

Growth systems. No BS. Real results.
Their words, not mine
A growth agency for local businesses, law firms, and trades, running seven service modules from search and site development through paid media, hosting, custom CRM work, AI implementation, and reporting. Barbed Wire Studios is its Texas branch.
I am a department head here, not a founder. The company was founded by Brenton Riling and is based in Lynchburg, Virginia.
