Oh hey,

I’M CHELSEA!
WEBSITE DESIGNER, MAMA, WIFE + ICED COFFEE ENTHUSIAST.

I live with my hubby and sweet baby girl right outside of Washington, D.C., but I'm originally from small-town Idaho. I've seen Taylor Swift live seven times and on any given day you’ll find me with an iced coffee in hand.

…are we bffs yet?

Do you remember, the 21st night of September?

On September 21st, little Chelsea was born into the world (thank you, Earth, Wind + Fire for dedicating a whole song just to my birthday!) and I've been an entrepreneur basically ever since. My first business was called Groovy Girl Designs when I was 8 years old. I made and sold glass bead bracelets - and let me tell you, they were a hit!

I was raised in the most beautiful small town in northern Idaho. My mom taught me two very important things growing up: 1. How to scrapbook and 2. Who Martha Stewart is. So, it’s no wonder that by my senior year of high school, I was the editor-in-chief of my high school newspaper (shout out, Cedar Post!) and had a passion for visual storytelling.

I went to college at Ball State University to study Journalism Graphics and had about the best college experience I could have imagined (including meeting my husband!). I graduated with a job as an art director at a magazine in NYC and lived there for five amazing years. In 2017, I transferred to the magazine’s D.C. office and in 2019, married my college sweetheart in my hometown - the most incredible day of my life!

Just like a lot of you, 23&9 Creative is my side hustle. It’s run on lots of late nights, numerous cups of iced coffee and a passion for working with incredible women all around the world. I know what it’s like to wear all the hats in a business and start from the ground up. I started my business as a resume design shop on Etsy in college and have slowly but surely built from there. Started from the bottom, right?!

My mission is to be a resource, helping hand, friend and website whisperer to get your business the online home it deserves.

Ready to website with me?

happy website-ing!

Julia Riddle, Designer

Meet Julia, a web design expert and postpartum doula with a passion for helping birth businesses thrive!

I started my professional career in the design space just after graduating from college. My primary focus at the time was marketing and digital design, but I soon stumbled upon the world of website design and have been completely hooked ever since.

My years in a corporate business setting were put on the backburner after having my daughter in 2017. Shortly after becoming a mother to my sweet Nora, I shifted my career towards my passion project and created my own business as a postpartum doula while remaining creative driven through website design.

After working with dozens of incredible clients and connecting with doulas and birth workers internationally, I realized the overwhelming lack of resources and marketing options available to doulas looking to create a professional business and brand presence. I wanted to change this. So I made it my business. I now have the pleasure of helping to bridge the gap between doula businesses and website design and provide clients with the tools to create the site of their dreams.

I know how difficult it can be to start a new business. Add in building a website, marketing, copywriting, finding clients, and branding your business...it's a lot of hard work!! I'm here to help. If you're ready to learn how to ditch the website overwhelm, prioritize your business, and build lasting connections with your dream clients, I think we'll be fast friends!
