About my journey to here as a Squarespace web designer
Taryn Mercedes Web Design is founded by me, Taryn.
As an expat living in Germany, I found while working with other expat solopreneurs, creatives, and small business owners that a custom website can be too expensive when just starting out. That's when I decided to create affordable templates that can be simply customized with all the necessary guides and tutorials to make it easy to shine online!
I’ve spent my lifetime navigating between the US and Germany with so many experiences shaped by these dynamic cultures.
I’m now an established EU resident and officially opened my business as a Squarespace web designer in May 2020. As a freelancer, I’ve been creating websites since 2012 when a friend asked me to help her design a website. I found Squarespace and fell in love with its modern elegance and simplistic ease of use!
I did create my very first website for fun using HTML back in 1999! I was young and full of crazy ambition!
I graduated University as a Journalism major, but found myself in jobs that included elements of design in their roles, and if they didn't, I created a reason for it. This led to a career path of design jobs in advertising, marketing, and publishing.
This is my journey and has shaped who I am and the essence of what I do. I pour my experiences and love for detail into every Squarespace website and template I create.

I've experienced firsthand the joys and challenges of living a life on and off abroad and becoming a solopreneur in a foreign country. It's not just about adapting to a new culture; it's about creating a space where your business can thrive, no matter where you are.
