But what about the

ROBOTS?

That’s a great question! In an era where AI is gaining traction, it’s realistic to question how AI stands up next to human designers. But here’s the bottom line, business is all about helping people and solving human problems.
To truly grasp these challenges, you have to talk to real people. By bringing in the perspectives of actual people, we can unlock deeper insights and arrive at solutions that truly resonate with the complexity of the human experience.

Olivia

Co-founder + Creative Director

Hi there! I’m Olivia and I’m looking forward to the opportunity to work with you.

With a passion for bringing business visions to life, I’ve spent a decade refining my skills in the fashion, wellness + lifestyle, and outdoor living industries.

My journey started with a fashion design degree and has evolved into business strategy, website design, and digital marketing. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working in both retail and wholesale e-commerce platforms, infusing every project with strategy and creativity.

Beyond Citrus & Salt Studios, I am also an advocate for slow fashion, chronicling my journey on Tastemaker Fashion. You’ll also find me at the roller skating rink, listening to live music, or discovering cool new restaurants and hotels.

Let’s build something amazing together!

Co-founder + Principal Developer

Hey there, if you’re reading this then I invite you to reach out and say hi!

I learned the arts of compassion and collaboration while working for years in restaurants as a line cook. When under pressure of a dinner rush, it’s easy to be less courteous. But  I’ve become good at considering what everyone else is going through too. Now I use my empathy as tool when creating websites to advocate for the user experience. Translating this to a business sense… the easier it is for a potential customer to use your website, the more likely you are to get the sale.

I dove head-first into the tech industry while I was still in high school. 10 years later, I have held multiple certifications in computer networking, general computer maintenance, and security. I have an Associate’s degree in Computer Information Systems, and a Bachelor’s degree in Internet & Web Development from ASU. Fun fact about my Bachelor’s degree – I started out in the Software Engineering program, but after getting up to 300-level classes I realized that I hadn’t learned anything about websites – which is where my real passion lies, so I pivoted.

Our Story

In the search for eternal sunshine, we made the bold move to move from snowy New York to sunny San Diego! Upon arrival, we soon found ourselves captivated by the unique stories from the vibrant small business community.

Our journey took a pivotal turn when we developed the slow fashion website, Tastemaker Fashion. Through this project, we discovered the joy of building a brand from scratch and honing our skills in website development. Inspired, we set our sights towards empowering small businesses to create compelling digital spaces. Thus, Citrus & Salt Studios was born.

Drawing inspiration from San Diego’s laid-back atmosphere, Citrus & Salt Studios radiates warmth and hospitality so every client feels valued and supported. We are committed to fostering partnerships built on connection and community. We hope to take the intricacies of your digital presence off your plate so you can focus on growing your business!
