Hi, I’m Don.

By day, I work for Destination Imagination, an educational non-profit, as the Director of Software Engineering & IT.

I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science, but my approach to web design is simple and practical: most small businesses don’t need anything complicated—they just need a website that works.

That’s why I started White Oak Web Design.

On the side, I help small businesses get their websites up and running—usually on Squarespace, because it’s reliable, easy to manage, and perfect for what most people actually need. Whether it’s your first site or a refresh of something outdated, I focus on clean design, clear messaging, and getting you online without stress.

A professional web presence doesn’t have to be fancy to be effective. Even a simple website makes all the difference—it gives people a place to find you, trust you, and reach you.

If you’re looking for someone who understands the technical side and knows how to keep things simple, I’d be happy to help.

How I Work

You know what you do better than anyone, I’m here to help turn that into a website.

My job isn’t to guess what matters to you— it’s to listen. I’ll ask the right questions, learn about your work, your audience, and what makes it all tick. From there, I’ll create a clean, easy-to-use site that reflects your personality and supports your goals.

You don’t need to know anything about design or tech, that’s my part. Just bring your ideas, your story, and what you want the site to do. Together we’ll build something that feels right and works hard for you and your business.
