"Back in September I opened up a beauty salon and needed someone to design a logo, brochures and my website, so I went with Abbie. She did such a fantastic job! She listened to everything I wanted and it was so easy to work with her. I have had so many compliments on my website. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I will continue to use her for any future needs. Thank you Abbie:-)"

"I have employed Abbie Taylor on a contractual basis over the past 10 years.
