Q: What does it cost?

The cost of working with me is detailed on the pricing page. For custom projects, cost is based on the deliverables we agree to work on together after an initial consultation. In that meeting we will determine your requirements and budget, and later you will receive a written proposal with a clear, itemized price list.

I recently updated the About page with my list of qualifications, so check those out. I’m an experienced graphic designer, business executive and mindful coach. I have a number of degrees and certifications, 30+ years of experience, and several publications and awards bearing my name.

Q: Why so many “ariw” domains?

You may have noticed from emails and social network profiles that I have several domains including ariw.com, ariw.info and ariw.coach. I also own aridublyu.com, ariw.photo and arimweinstein.com. These came about as my business diversified. I continue to use separate domains for certain administrative functions like scheduling. All of the services I provide are now available here on ariw.com, and most of my other domains redirect here.
