Welcome to HERStory, highlighting the many inspiring clients from DevelopHER designs. Here, founder and lead developer, Jess Tatham, talks career, life and more with women you definitely want to know more about. This week, we’re chatting with Susan Gold, executive of SGC LLC.
Part of the fun of being a web developer is the vast variety of clients I’m lucky to work with. Many of the impressive women I partner with have fascinating stories—hence the name of this column!—but also, impressive talents. When I first started chatting with Brazilian Emilia Mello, an award-winning producer and director, she sent me a portfolio of images she wanted to turn into a destination for creativity and inspiration.
Working with this client opened my eyes to a whole different side of consumerism. With a degree in fashion, Samantha Guarnieri was immersed in the world of style, and found herself frustrated with the industry’s focus on profit. She wanted something to change and wanted to create a new layer of philanthropy, so she set out to create a passion project.
