Client List

It took some hunting around to find the great combination of the ability and talent to do both the design and implementation of our new website. This is just what I wanted, someone who would respect my input, explain things in a way I could understand, and come up with a website that is so easy to use, change and update that I no longer dread managing it. — Beverley Rach, Fernwood Publishing

I love Sarah’s work, she is simply amazing! — Daniel Carroll, Vincent’s Restaurant

I know I can be a difficult client. Even in the face of that, Sarah continuously kept coming back with great work done and a smile on her face. I know it wasn’t always easy for her, but she never showed a wince of frustration. She gave me a great product for a most excellent price; I’m impressed and I look forward to working with Sarah again and again. — Ryan Delane, Web Site Maintenance & Design

It was pleasant and educational to work with Sarah, as she was patient with this techno peasant and produced a product that I can use and understand…and other people like it, too. — Sue Beaver, ArtChoices

Triggers and Sparks had the technical skills to do exactly what we needed, and the design skills to truly make it sparkle. — Alex Lencicki, Orbit Books

The site is simple and straight forward, giving me exactly the limited amount of customization I requested to quickly and easily update content while keeping a consistent look and feel. It looks slick, works slick and you did a great job of translating my awful description and ‘vision’ into a very effective website. Well done! — Darryl Wright, Seaweed Events

Everyone who seen my website is very impressed with it, and with its layout and design. — Michael Nodding, Lunenburg Framing & Studio

It was always a pleasure to work with Sarah. She gave me the right directions to improve my old website. I had so many good comments on this new website that I gave her the contract for my rack cards and business cards as well. She has a very good understanding of what a customer requires, her knowledge is excellent, and she is able to work very effectively. I am very excited to see the results of the next work order, the new Rum Runner Inn website. — Eva Zeigler, Smuggler’s Cove Inn

Sarah did a fantastic and very hard-working job on our website. She gave it a whole new updated look, an easy-to-use graphical interface, and much-improved navigation capabilities. We didn’t even have to worry about changing and testing all our links and bookmarks, because Sarah’s impressive attention to detail took care of all that for us. She made the site easy for us to maintain, too. Thanks Sarah! — Joyce Arthur, Pro-Choice Action Network

Sarah successfully runs a graphic design business in a small town rife with competition from a multitude of other graphic artists and wannabes. The reason why she maintains this success comes from her diverse skill set and unique styles. — Peter Guindon

Sarah is a pleasure to work with. She always has so many great ideas and her confidence is contagious. She breaks down jobs in a logical fashion and meets every deadline along the way, always standing by her work with a strong professional integrity. As for the quality of her work, it speaks for itself! — Iain Keith Murray, Imagicon Illustration

I was blown away by how fast. efficient, and professional Sarah was. Not only was she a joy to work with but the end product was better than I ever could have imagined! — Nick Lacelle, Knowtropolis

Sarah’s work with The Switch has proved invaluable….Her eye catching site design and logical layout made it perfect to reach and capture our audience, and has helped the band book shows and reach talent agents that The Switch could not have done alone. She gets the job done, and done right! — Nick Lawrence, The Switch

I enjoyed very much working with Sarah. She was very knowledgeable, always listening to my concerns and explaining what she was doing for the site. The site is just what I wanted, and was up and running earlier than I’d anticipated. I found her both professional and friendly—overall, a delight to work with! — John Keck, Brambles Antiques

I have never had a question on my website that Sarah could not answer, and often she has added much value with ideas and suggestions! My very best references goes out to Sarah and her company! — Pernille Fischer-Boulter, Kisserup Trade Roots

Sarah has the ability to take an idea, simple or complicated, and turn it into your wildest dreams! Her rare ability to “get it” has made our life much easier online! — Lesley Steeleworthy, Steeleworthy Wedding

Sarah is a very flexible person to work with, while at the same maintaining the integrity of her own style. She is very efficient and prompt which made the work flow easily. Since we were looking for someone with the skill of bridging to our idea of the Traveller’s Joy logo and what we stand for as a tour company, we were very pleased with the results. — Nancy Sherwood, Traveler’s Joy

I was riding the bus home today when I noticed two architects’ storefronts next to each other. One was fairly standard; typical type, the names of the architects; nothing special. The other was simply and cleanly designed, but stood out by a mile. Now, for me to take notice of my environment is sort of rare, and for me to critique it for style is sort of ridiculous. This is what working with Sarah has done to me (and by “working with” I mean “asking her to make me things”). I know that at any point I can ask her to design me something – anything from a resume to a new tattoo – and it will be done quickly, efficiently, and beautifully. In person, Sarah pretty much personifies the idea of style – if you’ve met her, you’ll know what I mean – so how can anything she creates help but be the most aesthetically pleasing things known to mankind? Working with her will result in not only you getting exactly what you wanted, but weren’t entirely aware that you wanted, but also in you gaining a new appreciation for the entire idea of design and the possibilities therein. Which, if you think about it, is pretty damn cool. — Jenny Arnold

Sarah has a wonderful design sense with a well developed aesthetic. We required her to work with another artist on our project and she was gracious, flexible and helpful every step of the way. Thanks to her insights and expertise we were very satisfied with the results. — Tzigany Cameron, Traveler’s Joy

I’ve worked with Sarah at both HB Studios and Triggers and Sparks. She is an extremely talented and hard working graphic designer. She is a perfectionist at heart and tries to do whatever she can to make her clients happy and make their sites beautiful. She also has a remarkably strong technical background for a designer and is able to develop robust sites using the latest web technologies. I worked as a frontend programmer to her graphic design at HB and her skills, perfectionism and technical knowledge made my job so much easier. I can’t imagine another graphic designer that I would prefer to work with. — Blair Doyle

Working with Sarah at Triggers & Sparks was such a load off my mind. I was worried I would be working with a temperamental designer that would plow ahead with their own ideas and not take mine into thought. This was the total opposite, she was patient with me and listened to my thoughts and turned them into reality! We FINALLY have a logo that we are proud of and it would never have happened without her patience and understanding. — Glenn Martin, Comfort & Joy

Several years later, Sarah’s design work is still opening doors for me professionally. The quality of the website designed by Triggers and Sparks has definitely helped me get work I likely wouldn’t have had access to otherwise. Everyone who sees my website has something great to say about it! — Jenni Campbell, Wordsmith Communications

As a regular client, I always have a laundry list of design and website needs for Sarah to deliver on each week. No matter how big or small, Sarah faces every challenge with a positive attitude and a smile and she always gets the job done—creatively and professionally. She is a pleasure to work with and a true asset to our company. — Tara Joosse, Wicker Emporium
