About me
Hello!
My name is Krista Hennings, and I’m a web designer and developer based in Washington, DC. I make websites that are clean, fun, and accessible. Think of me as the web designer next-door.
I’m a fan of HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, and all things design and development. On a given day you’ll find me either inside trying to learn how to make the web more enjoyable or outside enjoying something more analog. Ultimately, I want to make the web as natural and beautiful as the real world can be.
Why “kenning design”?
In addition to being a fun mash-up of my name, a kenning is a literary device in poetry. It’s a phrase that describes an object in a lovely round-about-way. Rather than being too obvious and thoughtless, a kenning teaches us new ways to interact with and think about what’s given to us.
What can I do?
I can design and code you a website from scratch with all sorts of front-end development tricks. I can also set you up on a Content Management System so that you can update your site yourself, and I can design mobile and tablet sites for you. I make standards-compliant sites for all current web browsers. I also do some print and web graphics work.
I’m currently taking clients, so email me, and we can get started creating your website together.
