I build websites.
I’m Eleazar Perez — everyone calls me izzy. I’m a web designer and developer in Venice, Florida. I design and build websites and online stores for businesses on the Gulf Coast — Venice, Sarasota, Tampa — and for e-commerce brands anywhere in the US. Every build listed on this page is live right now, and every link resolves. Check them.

WHAT I ACTUALLY DO
- Online stores. Full storefronts — product pages, cart, checkout, card and crypto payments, order handling, an admin you can actually use. Built custom, not dropped onto a template.
- Business websites. The site a local business needs to be found and be believed: what you do, where you are, how to reach you, loading fast on a phone.
- Brand and identity. Wordmark, type, colour and the rules that hold it together, so the site and everything after it look like one thing.
- Sites machines can read. Structured data, clean semantic markup and agent-readable endpoints, so search engines and AI assistants can tell what your business is and what it sells.
THE WORK — ALL OF IT LIVE
Most of these are mine. I didn’t just design them and hand them over — I built them and I run them, which means I’ve had to live with every decision I made. A store I own teaches me things a store I invoiced never would.
BBA Peptides
bbapeptides.comA full e-commerce storefront I built and operate: catalogue, cart, card and crypto checkout, order pipeline, stock control and an admin dashboard.
Kessler’s Collectables
kesslerscollectables.comA graded-card shop with real inventory — every item photographed, listed and tracked individually rather than as generic stock.
SaturnDesign
izzydesign.devA design system I wrote as a product: a studied reference library plus an API and MCP server that an AI coding assistant can call directly before it builds an interface.
IVY
ivyla.vercel.appA storefront build — product presentation and checkout for a small apparel label.
This site
izzy.laHand-written, no framework and no build step. The paper, the halftone and the drifting Saturn are a WebGL plate rendering live in the browser, with a static fallback when it can’t run.
HOW IT GOES
- You file a work order — the short form on the front page — or just email me. Say what the business is and what you need. Plain words are fine.
- I tell you what I’d build, what it costs and how long it takes, before you owe me anything.
- I build it, and you see it working on a real URL while it’s in progress — not a slide deck.
- It goes live, and you own it. The domain, the code and the accounts are yours.
QUESTIONS I GET
Do you work with businesses outside Florida?
Yes. Roughly half of what I build is remote and it makes no difference to the work. If you’re on the Gulf Coast we can meet in person; if you’re not, we won’t, and everything else is the same.
Do you build online stores, or just websites?
Both, and stores are the thing I do most. Payments, checkout, inventory and the admin behind it are the parts I know best, because I run stores of my own every day.
Will I be able to change things myself afterwards?
Yes. Products, prices, stock and copy are yours to edit from an admin page. If you want something structural changed later, email me.
Who actually does the work?
I do. There’s no team, no account manager and nothing sent offshore. You talk to the person building it, which is the main reason to hire someone like me instead of an agency.
What do you build it with?
Whatever the job needs, written by hand. I don’t resell one platform — I’m not a Shopify shop or a Squarespace shop, so I’ve got no reason to talk you into a monthly fee that suits me more than you.
How do I know the work is real?
Every project above is a live URL, not a screenshot. Open them, click through them, try to buy something. That’s deliberate — I’d rather you check than take my word for it.
