Our Foundation
We grind so your business doesn't have to. Late nights, early mornings — we don't stop until the work is right.
Every brand has a story. We find the visual language that makes yours impossible to forget.
Boulder bred, competition tested. We bring the same relentless drive to your project that we bring to the field.
Your website live in 7 days. Not 7 weeks. Because in business, momentum is everything.
The Team
Two young entrepreneurs from Boulder who turned their competitive edge into a web design agency built to deliver results.
Co-Founder & Creative Director
Division I athlete turned creative strategist. Thomas brings the discipline and competitive drive from the field to every project, ensuring your brand shows up to win. His background in D1 athletics forged an obsession with performance — whether that's a 40-yard dash or a Google PageSpeed score.
Co-Founder & Growth Strategist
MLS Next player, serial founder, and dual-program scholar at Georgetown and CU Boulder. Sage brings the entrepreneurial instinct that turns a beautiful website into a genuine revenue driver. He's built companies from scratch and knows exactly what a business needs to grow online.
Why Work With Us
We're a boutique studio that moves fast, cares deeply, and delivers work you'll be proud to share.
Our Work
A sample of businesses we've helped launch, redesign, and grow online.
The Process
We spend 30 minutes learning your business, goals, and vision. No sales pitch — just listening.
We design and code your site over 5 days, keeping you updated at every milestone.
You review the live preview. We make revisions until every pixel is perfect.
We deploy, optimize for search, and hand off the keys. You're live. Let's win.
Client Stories
Thomas and Sage delivered our new site in under a week — and it looks better than anything I've seen at three times the price. My booking rate went up 40% in the first month.
Jordan M.
Peak Plumbing, Boulder CO
I was blown away by how fast they worked. Every detail was exactly what we wanted. They clearly understood our brand without me having to explain it twice.
Camille R.
Bloom Salon, Boulder CO
These guys are the real deal. Young, hungry, and incredibly talented. Our restaurant reservations doubled after the new site launched. Worth every penny.
Marco S.
Mesa Bistro, Boulder CO
I tried two other agencies before finding Zipp & Bauer. The difference is night and day — they actually care about your results, not just collecting a check.

AI + SEO Visibility
Search is changing. AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI overviews are reshaping how customers discover businesses. We build every site to rank in traditional search and to be cited by AI.
That means semantic HTML, structured data, fast load times, and content that's written for humans but optimized for machines — so whether a customer searches or asks an AI, your business shows up first.
