01 / About

About me.

I'm Jessie Mullis, a marketing student at UF's Warrington College of Business, graduating in spring 2027. This year I'm vice president of UF Surf Club.

This summer I interned at Smalley Food Group, a CPG food brokerage, where I built the company's capabilities deck and led the redesign of its B2B website. On the side, I build websites for small businesses and make surf films.

Most of my life runs on the ocean: surfing, wakeboarding, inshore fishing, and filming all of it. I'm learning Spanish for trips to Central America, and I train for running and lifting at the same time.

05 / Websites

Need a website?

I design and build websites for small businesses and personal brands, from the strategy and copy to the CRM and email setup that follows up with the people it brings in.

  • Strategy

    Who the site is for, what it should get them to do, and a sitemap to match.

  • Design and build

    Mobile-first, on Squarespace or custom code, whichever fits.

  • Copy

    Written for your customers.

  • Leads and launch

    Forms that feed a CRM, email setup, domain, and a handoff so you can edit it yourself.

Send an application, we'll talk through what you need, and you'll get a plan and a quote before anything is built. Recent builds include Smalley Food Group's B2B site redesign and this one.
