A note from Meg:
After owning and running our own business for three years, Supper Solutions Thornton, my husband, Andy, and I decided to sell our business in order to gain some flexibility and to focus on our growing family. As the owner of the Thornton Supper Solutions franchise, I thoroughly enjoyed and was proud to have operated, run and managed the number one Supper Solutions kitchen in the Denver metro area for three consecutive years. I was responsible for everything from marketing, day-to-day management, purchasing, human resources, payroll, and employee training and scheduling to customer service best practices, health department inspections and food quality control. It was a crazy whirlwind experience, but I am so happy to be back doing what I love: web design!

Offering something not many in my field can, I have extensive experience with both web design and development (or programming) enabling me to bring my designs to life through web programming. I love the challenge of dreaming up an elegant site design and then transforming my design into the most efficient total web solution to meet my clients' needs.

Luckily, I am also a firm believer in life-long learning, which makes the ever-changing web design industry a perfect fit for me! I do everything I can to educate myself on the latest trends, technologies, design standards and best practices so that I can help my clients stay on top of the evolving and complex technical requirements we are challenged with every day.
