Who's Behind It
Before founding 717 Design, I spent ten years studying and working in marketing. When I moved to the United States, I tried to apply everything I knew but I found a different market, a language I barely spoke, and a system I had to learn from scratch.
Along the way, I worked with different collaborators. One of them delivered a poorly built website to one of my clients. Rather than leave it that way, I decided to fix it myself. It was the first time I designed a website and that's when I realized I could do it, that I loved it, and that I could combine it with everything I already knew about marketing.
Shortly after, I designed a website for a friend. She loved it. And without planning to, I started taking on more projects.
I kept studying accounting, marketing strategy, web design to sustain this new path. I practiced by building sites for different types of businesses, until, a year later, I realized that first website I fixed was the beginning of all of this.
717 Design was born from that experience: wanting to do things right, even when it wasn't my job to do so. Today, that same care is the foundation of every website we build.
Our Philosophy
People don't buy because of a beautiful website. They buy when they understand. Understanding builds trust. Trust drives action. That's why every website we create follows the same sequence: clarity, trust, choice, contact, results. Every section has a purpose. Every paragraph answers a question. Every button reduces friction.
What Makes Us Different
We don't sell websites. We build digital trust.
We integrate branding, psychology, user experience, SEO, and AI optimization into every project. Before designing a single page, we understand what your customer needs to know before they feel comfortable reaching out.
Who We Work With
We work with service businesses with real craftsmanship — tattoo studios, auto shops, detailing, interior design, cleaning companies, restaurants, wellness businesses, clinics, and premium local businesses. Clients who value quality over being the cheapest.
Our Commitment
717 Design is intentionally building its portfolio, prioritizing quality over quantity. Our goal isn't to make more websites. It's to make better businesses easier to choose.
ABOUT US
We are a web design studio based in Las Vegas, focused on service businesses that deserve to be understood with clarity. We don't believe in design that only impresses — we believe in design that removes doubt.
