Problem
A 40-year hospitality consulting firm had deep expertise but a website that built zero trust with hotel executives.

Result

Clear messaging that reduced confusion
Living Free Franklin
Problem
A growing congregation needed more than a brochure — they needed a platform serving visitors before and after they arrived.
Approach
13-page church platform with live sermon archives, prayer requests, events, and a dedicated visitor pathway.
Result
6 live data systems replacing fragmented tools. Built by someone who pastors the church.
+40% inquiries from visitor pathway
Steve Mauldin Productions
Problem
A working musician with decades of real credits and no single place to send people who asked "where can I hear your work?"
Approach
Clean six-page portfolio built to reflect the person, not a theme — bio, published music, demos, client history.
Result
One permanent URL for every pitch, bio, and email signature.
Professional presence that opens doors

I build websites that actually work.
I'm a digital entrepreneur and creative professional based in Portland, Tennessee. For over 15 years, I've worked across church communications, hospitality, lead generation platforms, voice actor representation, and small business branding — which means I've seen the digital problems you're facing from just about every angle.
I started Geaux Breaux because too many small businesses, churches, and local brands get stuck with websites that look fine but do nothing. Pretty isn't the goal. The goal is clearer messaging, better leads, faster sites, and easier updates — a digital presence that actually moves your mission forward.
When you work with me, you're not getting handed off to a junior designer or an account manager. You get one expert who scopes, designs, builds, and supports your project from start to finish. That's not a limitation — it's the reason the work stays this good.
