Website Projects
Please find below a glimpse of the website projects I have been working on. You will find the full reviews on the Testimonials page. This portfolio includes websites created from scratch as well as redesign projects:
Anna Sizorina is a Hamburg-based psychologist specializing in patients with an international background. Her website needed a redesign and will eventually be available in 3 languages. It is connected to a booking platform facilitating appointments and registration for her workshops.
Straight Ahead Consulting, a Munich-based company, used to have a one-pager WordPress website in dire need of an update to better reflect their service portfolio. They chose a more individual design featuring a header on the left side of the page.
Phillips & Pelly LLP needed a responsive landing page for an ad campaign to capture new leads. This simple landing page helps the personal injury lawyers promote their business to new clients.
Lily Hill Wellness had their website already built; however, it was difficult to maintain. The owner needed an easy-to-use WordPress website which highly resembled the original. I rebuilt this one-pager using the original design. Along with a custom video tutorial I provided the owner with the training he needed to maintain his website himself.
Wes Skillings, a professional copywriter, liked the overall look of his old website, skillunlimited.com; however, the theme and page builder had become glitchy over the years and needed replacement. Using the existing layout as a basis for the new design, I re-created the feel of the old website while giving it a cleaner, neater look by eliminating unnecessary design features and rearranging the content. The website is now more user-friendly and easier to navigate.
Marie was very easy to work with and right on top of things when rebuilding and improving my website at skillunlimited.com. She is particularly responsive when you need something done or changed. It’s nice to finally have a website that gets a response.

The owner of Neatly Placed, LLC is a professional organizer based in New Jersey. She had a pretty website already but was unhappy about the fact that she was not able to maintain and update her company website herself and on top of that was charged hefty fees for any edits that needed to be done. She came to the right place! Along with a fresh new look in WordPress she got a custom maintenance video and finally regained control over her business’ online presence.
VEP Manufacturing‘s online presence needed to be taken to the 21st century. The new website is now clearly structured and the straightforward design using a combination of rectangles, horizontal and vertical lines and shapes, reflects the company’s focus on top-notch technology. VEP Manufacturing had a wonderful selection of recent professional photos, which play a highly significant role in best portraying their state-of-the-art facility.
John Lancaster is a journalist who recently wrote The Great Race, a book about the 1919 transcontinental air race from the East Coast to the West Coast, a pivotal moment in aviation history. John will be flying the same route in the summer of 2019. He needed a website to showcase his book and upcoming journey. The website needed to be minimalistic, easy to navigate and fun to read.
Marie designed the website for my book on the 1919 transcontinental air race. She was terrific–fast, efficient, creative, and highly responsive. Did exactly what I wanted, when I wanted it–and all for a very reasonable price in my view. Everyone loves the website she designed. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat.

Gannon Associates, an insurance company based in Towanda, PA operating twelve locations across the Northeast, had a great website. However, their previous developer charged them an arm and a leg for minor edits. They needed to regain control over their site. Based on the existing layout, design and content I completely rebuilt their web presence on a new server. A thorough training video provided to the client now enables them to maintain their website themselves and avoid unnecessary charges.
Organized Transitions LLC had a good website built overseas. Over time, however, they needed a fresh new layout based on the original design of the site. After sitting down face-to-face and working closely with owner Elaine Fernando, we completed the project and clients love the result. We continue our work together as Elaine is expanding her business.
Reminiscence by Kris LeDonne had an important deadline coming up and the website at the time was just a plain page with no content. Kris had beautiful images and a clear vision of what her new website should look like. It was a pleasure making that vision a reality in a matter of just a few days!
I am so thankful for Marie’s work! My website is BEAUTIFUL, delivered on the timeline I requested, answering any questions with patience and kindness and I’ll definitely be sending referrals her way in addition to more of my own work. Thank you Marie!

MacLean College Counseling‘s mission is to help high school students prepare and choose a college. Their new website is tailored towards the needs of students and parents alike, i.e. a clear structure and layout make the site easy to navigate and information easily accessible.
Marie Roeling is terrific. She understands the ins and outs of WordPress and can quickly and easily set up a website using one of their themes. She is savvy about how to prompt visitors to engage with the site and to contact the business. She also has a good design sense, laying out the various aspects of a page so that the it is easy to read and in keeping with the brand image of the business. I highly recommend her services!

Antoinette’s Authentic Antipasto is a startup with a very special mission: The proceeds of every jar of antipasto sold go towards a foundation benefiting local nonprofits. The project is still in its infancy, and an online store is in the works.
Richmond Industries, Inc. has been a maintenance client and needed a theme update. As they liked the previous overall design of their website, we focused on recreating its original look and feel and added a few bells and whistles for functionality and style.
Marie has been a pleasure to work with! She moved our website platform over, and made some edits on our site for us. She’s very quick to respond to all of our requests, and completes them even faster! She makes great suggestions, and is helpful in explaining certain inquiries. We’ll be recommending her to everybody!
Jennifer Williams, Vice President – Richmond Industries, Inc. (2018)
Museum Partners Consulting, LLC already had a website that needed to be replaced by a responsive, modern, more interactive and accessible website. Based on the company logo, the new website was designed with a specific target group in mind – museum professionals and organizations looking for assistance to improve their programs and facilities.
Working with MarieKra Communications was terrific from start to finish. Marie took the time to understand what I wanted in a new website and kept within my budget. She communicated regularly and got things done quickly. I feel much more confident to manage it myself after the training, which was in really plain language for “digital immigrants” like me. (…) Thanks to MarieKra I have a much more professional looking website.

Mad Nutrition, LLC had a beautiful but technically obsolete theme and needed a theme switch while preserving its current look and feel. It was a pleasure rebuilding this colorful website and adding some new design twists to it, such as a textured header for the blog page.
She works within your budget to check your most important boxes which, as a small business owner, I so appreciate! (…) I highly recommend MarieKra Communications for all your wordpress website needs including maintenance, improvements or total site redesign.
