About Romeo
Designer and developer, accountable from first sketch to launch.
With 15 years of experience in design and development, Romeo founded ARKIELLO to give businesses one partner who can plan, design, code and promote their online presence, without handing the project between disconnected vendors.
Romeo has designed, built and optimized websites for brands in the United States, working remotely across time zones with owners and marketing teams. Client names stay confidential unless a client agrees to be featured.
He builds with semantic HTML and hand-written CSS: responsive layouts with Grid and Flexbox, custom code modules inside Divi, Elementor and Breakdance, and lightweight WordPress block themes. Every build is checked for accessibility, page speed and clean structure for search engines, from optimized WebP images to accurate structured data.
Video has been at the centre of his work for a decade. For 10 years he has been Creative Director at MCT Production, creating marketing videos and producing live events, together with the motion graphics, branding, ad creatives and print that go with them.
Around all of this, he handles technical and on-page SEO and mobile app design and development, and uses AI-assisted workflows to move faster without lowering the standard.
