    I’m Paul, a seasoned web developer and CRO specialist with over a decade of experience. Over the course of my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of businesses from startups to publicly traded companies. In fact, you may recognize a few of my clients: Guy Fieri Manscaped Scotts Miracle-Gro Red Bull Samsung Western Governors University Scholl Atom Tickets Litter Robot Prestigify Graphene-X GymWear UK Chloe Dao Napapijri Formula Fun Foamies NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) When it comes to CRO, there are no "one-size-fits-all" solutions. If we were to work together, I would take the time to understand your problems and craft a unique plan to achieve them. That being said, most of my CRO projects begin with a thorough audit of website performance, where I conduct user research and analytics reviews to identify user behaviors and key pain points, focusing on foundational optimizations upfront. After that, I usually move into audience-focused, behavior-driven personalization and A/B testing. Over time I continue to perform iterative testing and refinement to improve conversion rates. For my web development projects, I typically begin by gathering requirements and identifying opportunities to enhance user experience. Then, I create prototypes and incorporate your feedback before proceeding with development and integrations that prioritize both functionality and user experience. After the development phase, I conduct user testing to ensure the site operates smoothly across all devices. And after deployment, I offer ongoing support for updates and optimizations as needed. I have experience using the following tools and platforms for CRO and web development projects: VWO Hotjar Django Flask Optimizely Shopify Plus Adobe Target Selenium WebDriver I’m proficient in the following languages: Python Java Kotlin Javascript CSS HTML Liquid SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) Whether you need assistance with website optimizations, web development projects, or UX/UI research, I'm here to help. If you think we could be a good fit, feel free to send me a message! I’d love to learn more about your business and explore how we’d work together.

    My specialty is long-form technical writing that addresses complex subjects for non-technical readers - such as white papers that describe the value of a technology product for a business audience, blog posts that describe the relevance of news items to a company's value proposition, or articles that describe best practices in software development and the relevance of a product in supporting those practices. I've spent more than 25 years working in software and technology as a product management and software consulting leader. Writing and communicating through words has been a skill that has helped me along the way that I have always enjoyed. What story can I help you tell?
