A custom wordpress theme was created from scratch for Toronto Tourism; Business events.

Testimonials

Chiara built and maintains my website on the Shopify platform. She worked tirelessly to build and code the site to be perfectly in line with my brand’s visual identity, and a fairly complex business model. The end result is both beautiful and functional - and working with Chiara has been a pleasure. Chiara is incredibly responsive and really goes above and beyond - I hope to be working with her for many years to come.

Have nothing negative to say. Very easy to work with, talented, and understands the needs of the product. I would totally give her a shot.
