2024 was a difficult year, I have made the pivot to Social Work and I have to say I'm really loving it and I feel I have found my calling.

That being said, I also really enjoy keeping my hand in the digital space and I feel there is a lot I have to offer, blending my tech experience with my mentoring human focused approach I'm really learning in the work I'm doing now.

I'm excited to announce the soft launch of my new Digital Mentoring service!

🎵 Client Spotlight: Livia Records 🎵
Meet Livia Records www.liviarecords.com, an Irish jazz label with a passion for bringing soulful sounds to the world. They came to me with a challenge: build an eCommerce website to sell their CDs and vinyl globally—without the hefty ongoing fees of platforms like Shopify or Bandcamp.

The Challenge
With a limited budget, Livia Records needed a solution that could:
✅ Seamlessly process international transactions
✅ Be user-friendly for customers and their team
✅ Avoid recurring fees that cut into their margins

The Solution
I built their website using WooCommerce on WordPress, providing:
🌐 Cost savings: No recurring platform fees or sales percentages
🌍 Global scalability: Support for multiple currencies and regions
🎨 Customization: A design that reflects Livia Records’ unique brand identity
💪 Empowerment: An easy-to-use interface for managing orders, inventory, and updates

The Outcome
The result? A sleek, functional website—www.liviarecords.com—that delivers:
✨ Cost-effective operations: Maximized profits with no hidden fees
🌎 Global reach: Fans worldwide can purchase music effortlessly
💻 User-friendly management: Livia’s team is in full control of their online store

Key Takeaway
This project shows how open-source tools like WooCommerce can transform small businesses. Livia Records now has a stable, independent platform to grow their business while staying true to their budget.
