Raquel Scott

GRAPHIC DESIGNER • WEB DEVELOPER

My journey started as a baker and cake decorator. I enjoy creating dream cakes for people on their special days, whether it be a birthday, anniversary, shower, or wedding day. After going to school for Baking & Pastry Arts Management and managing a bakery in Toronto for several years, I decided to change course and dive into the world of graphic design.

I have always been passionate about art and design. I studied Studio Art and Art History at the University of Toronto, and always found comfort in creating things. One of my favourite pastimes is when I have a paintbrush, canvas, and a tarp (for the mess of course).

Twisted Lemon Restaurant & Boutique Inn is a well-regarded fine dining restaurant located in the heart of Cayuga, Ontario.

What my clients are saying…

We never felt like it was a contract with Raquel, rather more like a relationship and we all had the same mutual end goal.

“We had the pleasure of working with Raquel to build a new website for our business. As a business that had already been operating for 14 years, we had a very long list of information and were quite particular about how we wanted to evolve into a new, crisp and clean website. Raquel was amazing at listening to us and our vision and being able to make it happen. She was always quick to respond to our questions and made it clear to us what she needed and when she needed it by to keep things on track. We had our own deadlines to work with and every one of them were met with clear and open communication. Raquel was always ready to hear our feedback and make the necessary adjustments. We really appreciated that Raquel was always honest with her thoughts from a design perspective and we communicated regularly to always find the perfect balance. We never felt like it was a contract rather more like a relationship and we all had the same mutual end goal. We have since continued work with Raquel on other projects and are extremely happy with the results.”

Raquel is a strong partner in helping you meet your communications and promotion goals.

“Raquel approaches web design with ultimate care and attention for her client and their needs. This past winter, 2023, Raquel worked with me to launch a website for my instructional design business. It was my first time building a website and content for my own business purposes. Raquel gave me sound advice and direction on the website concept, while also creating opportunities to listen to my questions, get my feedback, and translate all of that information into a striking website with high usability and top-notch design. I would gladly work with Raquel again and recommend her to other business leaders. She is a strong partner in helping you meet your communications and promotion goals.”

Raquel made this process easy and enjoyable.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Raquel over the last few months designing a new website for our school. She made this process easy and enjoyable - taking all of my ideas as well as the Montessori principles that are important to our school into consideration, but offering her design expertise to make them an online reality that is not only beautiful, but user-friendly as well. We are so happy with the final product and receive constant positive feedback from so many who have interacted with our new website! I look forward to continuing our work together as she provides ongoing website maintenance services for us.”
