About Gio and Jake

We’re Gio and Jake—partners, lifelong learners, and founders of a web design company built on the belief that technology should feel as personal and intentional as a hand-written letter. Our journey into tech wasn’t traditional: Gio transitioned from the legal field to software engineering, channeling her passion for helping others into crafting personalized websites, while Jake’s roots are in small-town entrepreneurship and hands-on work, from turning wrenches in his dad’s shop to building software for big tech and local businesses alike.

We’ve always been drawn to the art of making things—whether it’s a website, a story, or a community project. Our blog is filled with book reviews, adventures, and honest reflections on the ups and downs of learning, building, and growing. We’ve built non-profits, taught ourselves new skills, and helped small businesses and friends get online for the first time. We know what it’s like to start from scratch, to try and fail, and to keep going because we care about the work and the people we serve.

Over time, we realized that technology had become impersonal—cold, robotic, and disconnected from the human experience. Determined to change that, we founded Gio and Jake, a web services business dedicated to human-centered design, quality craftsmanship, and accessibility for all. We believe technology should be approachable, beautiful, and built with intention. Whether you’re a startup or an established business, we work collaboratively to create websites that feel personal, functional, and truly unique.

Our mission is simple: Elevate technology through craftsmanship, making high-quality web services accessible to the little guy. We listen first, build with care, and make every site feel like it was crafted just for you. You’re not just another client—you’re a collaborator, a fellow dreamer, and someone whose story deserves to be told beautifully online. We’re here to help you share your vision, grow your business, and feel at home in the digital world—one handcrafted website at a time.
