Testimonials
Juliana Ansah
CEO Black Leaders CIC
Nico played a pivotal role in helping Black Leaders CIC develop a new, user-friendly, and efficient webpage that has significantly enhanced our online presence. The updated functions and features he implemented have been seamlessly integrated into our internal dashboard, allowing us to better manage our business operations and track key activities. Working with Nico was an absolute pleasure. He not only had a clear understanding of our technical needs but also deeply grasped the mission of our organisation, which focuses on improving the experience of racialised communities working in healthcare and promoting equitable care across England. I highly recommend Nico for his professionalism, expertise, and leadership. His ability to guide and support our growing business has been invaluable in raising our profile and ensuring our impact is widely recognised.

I've had the pleasure of working with Nico for five years. He has designed my website twice by now. When you work with Nico you get the best of design paired with the best of service. My first website was created decades ago and I've had a few designers along the way... Nico is by far the best one. Not only does he create an excellent design for you, he insists on going in deep to understand your business and what you need. And when done, he makes himself available for updates and tweaks and when you reach out he is responsive immediately. Not only have I had my own website designed by Nico, I have recommended him to clients and friends, and they are equally thrilled. It's a great asset for a communication expert like myself to be able to refer my clients to a premium web designer like him. After hiring Nico, no one compares. Cannot recommend him enough!.

Nico has done an outstanding work in creating our SCT website. The site is beautifully designed, intuitive, and easy to navigate, providing a seamless experience for our visitors. What truly sets Nico apart is his dedication and generosity. He assisted our team with regular updates on our website during the pandemic while focusing our efforts to support our most vulnerable in our community. Nico is always readily available to address technical issues whenever needed. His professionalism and commitment are highly commendable, and we cannot thank him enough for his invaluable support.
