Full Stack Developer building web apps, APIs, CMS-driven sites, and SaaS platforms end to end — React & Next.js on the front, Laravel, Node.js (NestJS), and Python (FastAPI) on the back. I help founders, startups, and businesses ship products that actually hold up in production, not just in a demo. One developer who owns the whole build: database design, backend logic, API, CMS, frontend UI, and deployment. No handoffs, no "that's not my part." ✅ What I can build for you: • Custom web apps & SaaS platforms (frontend + backend + database) • CMS-driven websites — WordPress, plus headless CMS (Strapi, Sanity, Contentful) • REST & GraphQL API development and third-party API integrations • Admin dashboards, CRMs, booking systems, and internal tools • Workflow automation with Zapier, Make, n8n, or custom scripts • AI integrations, chatbots, and OpenAI/LLM-powered features • Stripe payments, subscriptions, authentication, and user roles • MVP development for startups and founders • Performance optimization and legacy code rescue 🛠️ Tech stack: Frontend — React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS Backend — Laravel (PHP), Node.js, NestJS, Express, Python, FastAPI CMS — WordPress, Strapi, Sanity, Contentful (headless & traditional) APIs — REST, GraphQL, webhooks, third-party integrations Databases — PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis Cloud & DevOps — Docker, AWS, CI/CD, Git I ask the right questions up front, flag problems while they're small, keep you updated without being chased, and leave behind clean code your next developer won't curse. Tell me what you're building and I'll reply with how I'd actually approach it

When Emily came to me, she had spent weeks trying to build her dad's woodworking wix website herself. She was overwhelmed. The layout wasn't coming together, the product collections page felt impossible to organize, and she didn't know where to turn. More than a great-looking wix site, she wanted her dad, a craftsman who had built his business with his own hands, to see it and feel proud of what he had created. When we finished, she told me he was completely overjoyed. That moment is exactly why I do this work. I'm a Wix website designer and Wix Studio specialist with a 100% Job Success Score and Top Rated status on Upwork. I've built and redesigned Wix websites for woodworking businesses, wellness studios, yoga instructors, HR consultancies, nutrition platforms, personal training brands, and more, always with the same goal: a site that looks polished, performs on every device, and turns visitors into paying clients. Most Wix websites underperform for the same reasons. Cluttered layouts that confuse visitors. Mobile versions that look broken. No clear call to action. Weak SEO setup that leaves the site invisible on Google. Missing features like booking systems, store setup, or payment integration. Beautiful design that simply doesn't sell. I've worked with business owners across industries who had exactly these problems, and I know how to fix them strategically, not just cosmetically. A beautiful Wix website that nobody finds, or that visitors leave without contacting you, is not doing its job. I build sites that do their job. ✦ Wix Website Design Full site builds in Wix or Wix Studio, structured for conversion before a single section is designed. Mobile-first layout, clean visual hierarchy, consistent branding, and a clear path that guides every visitor toward contacting you, booking, or buying. Every page has a purpose and every section earns its place. ✦ Wix Website Redesign If your current Wix site no longer reflects where your business is today, or never did, I rebuild it with intention. I review what is working, cut what is not, restructure the layout and navigation, and deliver a result that earns trust faster and converts better than the original. ✦ Wix SEO Setup A site nobody finds is a wasted investment. I set up your SEO foundations correctly, meta titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, internal linking, sitemap submission, and Google Search Console connection, so your site is indexed properly and positioned to rank from day one. ✦ Wix Bookings Integration Service businesses lose clients every day because booking is too complicated. I integrate Wix Bookings so your clients can schedule directly from your site, automated confirmations, calendar sync, and a smooth booking experience that fills your calendar without back-and-forth emails. ✦ Wix eCommerce & Online Store Setup From product pages and categories to payment configuration and checkout flow, I build Wix stores designed to sell, not just display. Clean collection pages, product variants, shipping rules, and a purchase experience that builds trust and reduces abandoned carts at every step. ✦ Wix Integrations & Automation I connect your site to the tools your business runs on, email marketing platforms, CRM systems, lead capture forms, and Wix automations that follow up with new inquiries automatically so no lead goes cold while you are busy running your business. ✦ DNS, Domain & Technical Setup Domain connection, subdomain configuration, DNS setup, and domain transfers, handled cleanly and correctly so your site goes live without technical confusion or delays. ✦ Wix Maintenance & Ongoing Support Your business evolves. Your website should too. I offer ongoing support, new pages, content updates, mobile fixes, seasonal changes, and performance checks, so your site stays current and effective without becoming another task on your list. ✦ Migration to Wix Moving from WordPress, Squarespace, or another platform to Wix? I handle the full rebuild, cleaner structure, better design, and a stronger result than what you left behind. Who I work best with ✔ Small business owners who want a wix site that generates real inquiries, not just compliments ✔ Coaches, consultants, and wellness professionals who need bookings running on autopilot ✔ Service providers, salons, studios, trainers, contractors, ready for online scheduling ✔ Creatives and photographers who want a portfolio that wins clients ✔ Online sellers launching or growing a Wix store ✔ Business owners who are not tech-savvy and need a designer who explains every step clearly ✔ Anyone who has tried building their own Wix site and knows it is time to bring in a professional Ready to get started? Send me a message with: 1️⃣ Your current wix website link (if you have one) 2️⃣ What you want your wix site to accomplish, leads, bookings, or sales 3️⃣ Any websites you love the look of I will review your situation and tell you exactly what I would build and why, no guesswork.
