alison foxall: Tampa WordPress theme developer
I am a Tampa WordPress web designer and developer, and hobby photographer. I create website designs, code and develop websites into standard compliant XHTML and CSS, then integrate those websites seamlessly into a custom developed WordPress Theme to easily manage content.
Check out the brands that I’ve worked with:
what i do: services
Not only do I design user interfaces for WordPress and applications, I focus on branding and advertising.
If you already have a website design, I can easily code it in html5 and css for all major browsers up to IE7.
Tired of old content on your website? With WordPress you can easily manage your website without any xhtml knowledge. Every site I make comes with a custom WordPress theme.

about: alison
short bio
Alison has been in the web industry since the beginning of this century. She got her BFA in Graphic Design to pursue more creative aspects of building websites. She has created more sites than she can count, but only a few that she’s really proud of to show you here.
Alison’s extracurricular interests are in travel, culinary, and music. Basically everyone else’s interested. On a granular level, I love open-source software, organic and green living, and integral philosophies. She’s into painting right now, mostly abstract pieces.
Alison also volunteers her time and efforts to American Advertising Federation where she serves as the Digital Co-Chair. She also helps out the Siberian Husky Rescue of Florida and has adopted a rescue dog, Zuri, in late 2009.
