I am a WordPress developer with 13+ years building custom plugins, LMS platforms, membership systems, eCommerce stores, and sites that hold up long after launch. I work with business owners who need WordPress done right the first time and maintained with the same standard after. Here is what that looks like in practice: A plugin your team actually needed, built from scratch because no off-the-shelf tool did it correctly. A LearnDash course platform that enrolls students, tracks progress, and handles payment without manual work. A site that loads fast, stays secure, and does not break when you update a plugin. A care plan that means someone with real expertise is watching your site every week, not just collecting a fee. My focus is clean builds, honest timelines, and sites that work the way your business needs them to. What I help with: - Custom WordPress Plugin Development - LearnDash LMS Builds and Customization - MemberPress and Membership System Setup - WooCommerce Development and Configuration - WordPress Web Design (Elementor, custom themes) - Website Care Plans and Ongoing Maintenance - Plugin Debugging and Conflict Resolution - Site Speed and Performance Optimization - WordPress Migration and Security Hardening - Gravity Forms, API Integrations, and Custom Workflows Tools and platforms I know well: WordPress, LearnDash, MemberPress, WooCommerce, Gravity Forms, Elementor, Advanced Custom Fields, PHP, MySQL, REST API, Stripe, Zapier, Cloudflare. My approach is simple. I look at what your site needs to do for your business. Then I build it to do exactly that. No overcomplicated solutions. No disappearing after launch. If you need a plugin built, a course platform launched, or a developer who will actually keep your site healthy, send me a message.
