ONGdesign is really just me, Jeff Ong. I'm a Portland, Oregon Web developer, strategist, and reluctant designer, mainly using Drupal.

I've been doing this for about as long as there's been a World Wide Web (people actually called it that back then). For most of that time, I worked for ad agencies, either as an employee or as a contractor. Now I mainly work on my own, and I try to do at least half my business with worthwhile non-profits (at a reduced rate). I do work with other people (developers, designers, copywriters) on larger projects, although most small- to medium-sized sites don't need that many hands on deck, honestly.

(When I say I'm a "reluctant designer," I just mean that I'm a little leary of the big & beautiful designs. I'm all in favor of functional designs, that make Web sites easy and fun to use. It's like that fancy coffee pot you wanted for so long. You bought it because it was so gorgeous and sleek, but the first time you poured scalding coffee down your sleeve, you recognized the value of functional design. But I digress.)

Anyway, poke around, and feel free to contact me if you'd like to chat about a possible project!
