About Us
The people behind the work

The Founder
Hi, I'm James.
I'm a software engineer and designer from Lorain, Ohio. I built Foundry Frame in 2026 after years of watching great small businesses lose clients to websites that looked like they were made in 2009 — or worse, by someone who clearly didn't care.
My background sits at the intersection of technical engineering and visual design. I write the code, I design the layouts, and I think hard about conversion — what makes someone trust a business enough to reach out. That combination is rare, and it's the thing I'm most proud to bring to every project.
Foundry Frame is deliberately small. I take on a limited number of projects each quarter so every client gets direct access to me — not a junior account manager. If you're investing $1,500 to $15,000+ in your website, you deserve to work with the person who's actually building it.
I'm results-focused above everything else. A site that wins awards but doesn't bring in clients is a failed site. Every decision I make — design, copy, structure — is in service of one goal: turning your visitors into paying customers.
