I’m Cole Mays. I grew up around the trades and ran a painting company of my own, and for the last two years I’ve been building websites and doing the Google work for local businesses in Hawaii, Colorado and Canada, from my home in Kona.
Byword Studio is part of Neuma Creative, the brand studio I run, which is why you’ll see Neuma’s name on some of the sites above.
