Sprocket began in 2009 to give growing organizations senior-level digital help without the agency layers. Most of our work comes from referrals and long relationships, so recommendations have to be practical and the work has to last.

Work from referrals
I've been building for the web almost as long as there's been a web to build for. I studied marketing at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and as the internet grew, I learned the design, development and technical skills that increasingly became part of helping organizations market themselves well.
I started Sprocket in 2009 to give clients direct access to senior-level strategy, design and development without layers of account managers and handoffs. Since then, I've worked with more than 500 organizations, from startups and local businesses to healthcare organizations, nonprofits, ministries and Fortune 500 companies. Nearly all of that growth has come through referrals.
I also bring more than 30 years of ministry experience to the work. That gives me a deep understanding of the unique challenges churches and nonprofits face — limited resources, multiple stakeholders, mission-driven communication and the need to build trust without sounding overly promotional.
I still work directly with clients from strategy through launch and beyond. I love creating things, solving problems and finding practical ways to make marketing and technology work better.
