Louise Towler

As Managing Director, Louise is responsible for our strategy and new business

When it comes to website design and development, Louise’s passion and enthusiasm for delivering a great online experience for our clients knows no bounds.

It all started in 2003 when Louise, armed with a 1st class degree in Mathematics and a career in Software Development and Quality Assurance, started developing websites for clients from her home office, and ‘LT Consulting’ was born. In 2016, with an ever-growing team and a breadth of services, the agency rebranded to Indigo Tree with a clear vision and values to steer us towards future growth.

 Louise has been recognised as a Women In Innovation award winner. She has also completed The Help to Grow course at Brunel Business School, the Service Innovation Practitioner Course at the Royal College of Art, and spoke at Brighton SEO in April 2022 about WordPress and Core Web Vitals.

Louise is at her happiest in front of a screen and her idea of a break is attending a WordCamp and meeting up with friends to discuss the latest digital trends and technology. For the past couple of years Louise has also been working on the new WordPress carbon footprint measurement Kanoppi.
