Need a new website, add a new feature or a few tweaks here and there? Have an amazing idea that needs a custom WordPress theme? Looking for a Divi WordPress theme expert?
I've been working as an employed web developer for the last 8 years and have decided to make freelancing my focus going forward. While most of my past freelance work was local I'll admit I haven't done any freelance on UpWork and have set my rates accordingly.
My top qualities consist of:
Communication - Knowing how to code is one thing but knowing how to listen and understand your needs is equally important. Regular and prompt communication helps ensure your project is completed in a productive and efficient manner. I strive to develop a good rapport by being open minded, friendly and fun to work with!
Honesty - Building long standing working relations starts with building trust. I’ll be upfront and honest about your project and give you an accurate estimate of time and cost. As a one-person operation, I love being able to give individualized attention to my clients and with a little bit of luck that’ll lead to future work down the road.
Best Practices - I’ll admit Wordpress is an awesome tool, has some really cool features and can save a lot of time. On the other hand Wordpress can also cause a lot of issues by using bloated themes and going plugin crazy which can kill page load times. I like to keep things simple and clean yet fast and secure. Staying up-to-date on current best practices helps avoid problems before they happen.
I've been building websites and learning code well over 10 years and am experienced in WordPress, HTML5, CSS3, PHP, JavaScript, JQuery, WooCommerce, Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), and Google Analytics to name a few. I work on a variety of projects of all sizes, and specialize in the coding of custom WordPress themes and custom plugins.
If you made it this far why not go ahead and hire me!
I’d love to learn more about your project, and how I can help out.
