About

I build websites that work as hard as the businesses behind them.

I'm Marcus, a web developer based in Ho Chi Minh City. I specialize in building high-quality websites for restaurants, studios, and personal brands.

My approach is simple: every business deserves a website as beautiful as what they do. Most small businesses get templated, generic sites that blend into the background. I build websites that reflect the actual character of the business.

I work with clients directly — no account managers, no handoffs. You get someone who cares about the outcome as much as you do, and who knows the difference between a website that looks good in a screenshot and one that actually converts.

When I'm not building, I'm writing about what I've learned — on design, web craft, and the small business internet.
