Rainbow Forge
RAINBOW FORGE
Pronouns: They/Them
Rainbow is a web developer and designer dedicated to helping clients build and maintain their websites. Their mission is to make the internet more accessible and affordable, breaking away from the dominance of megacorporations. Rainbow chose to become a freelance web developer after seeing too many people misled by the marketing campaigns of companies like Wix and Squarespace. Their goal is to empower clients to take control of their online presence, avoiding the confines of site builders' ecosystems and simplifying complex tech jargon. They strive to equip clients with the knowledge and tools needed to confidently manage their online platforms, even after the collaboration ends.
Above all, Rainbow is a perfectionist, detail-oriented to a fault. In addition to their web development work, they are a musician and music educator, focusing on guitar and bass. They try to live by the flexible, rule-breaking spirit of jazz, balancing their personal and professional life between creativity and perfectionism. This unique combination is ideal for their various lines of work. Rainbow is also thrilled to work predominantly with queer clients, freeing them from the constraints of pleasing cishet bosses.
