I design and build websites that are structured to perform, across Webflow, WordPress, and eCommerce platforms. My work sits at the intersection of UX/UI design and development: every project starts with a design process and ends with a production-ready build that is fast, responsive, and built around how users actually move through a site. Webflow is my primary build environment. I work in Webflow for marketing sites, landing pages, CMS-driven content hubs, and brand experiences where design fidelity and performance need to be non-negotiable. Every Webflow build is structured with a clean CMS architecture, mobile-first layout, and a client handoff that makes independent content management straightforward, no developer dependency after launch. For projects requiring a deeper CMS or eCommerce foundation, I build in WordPress. Custom theme development, Elementor and Divi builds, WooCommerce stores, and PHP-level customisation for functionality that page builders alone can't deliver. The platform choice is always driven by what best serves the project — not personal preference. What I design and build: Custom Webflow websites: marketing sites, landing pages, portfolio and agency sites, CMS-driven pages with dynamic filtering and collections Webflow CMS architecture: blog collections, team directories, portfolio grids, and structured content systems built for long-term scalability UX/UI design: wireframes, user flows, Figma prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups before any development begins Custom WordPress websites: built with Elementor, Divi, or Gutenberg based on what the project requires, with clean HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP underneath WordPress theme development and customisation: child themes, ACF integration, and REST API connections WooCommerce stores: product setup, payment gateway integration, optimised checkout flow, and a storefront designed around buying behaviour Shopify store design and development: custom theme builds, Liquid development, and conversion-focused product page design eCommerce CRO: layout restructuring, checkout optimisation, and conversion-focused design across platforms Technical SEO implementation: on-page structure, schema markup, sitemap configuration, Core Web Vitals, and page speed optimisation Third-party integrations: CRM connections, Zapier automation, API integrations, and plugin customisation Tech stack I work with regularly: Webflow · Webflow CMS · WordPress · WordPress Development · Elementor · Divi · WooCommerce · Shopify · Shopify Theme · Figma · PHP · JavaScript (ES6+) · HTML5 · CSS3/SCSS · ACF · WordPress REST API · Yoast SEO · Rank Math · WP Rocket · Cloudflare · GA4 · GTM · Meta Pixel · Zapier · Stripe · PayPal Who I work with: I work with startups, growing businesses, agencies, and founders in the US and English-speaking markets who need a website or eCommerce store that is designed strategically and built to last. Most of my projects involve a client who has outgrown a template, needs a platform migration done properly, or wants a new build handled end to end without managing multiple contractors. If you need Webflow, WordPress, or eCommerce work done to a high standard, send me a message.

I help founders and growing businesses turn early ideas, messy workflows, and aging apps into clear, polished web products people can use and trust. I bring product thinking, UX and visual design, and full stack development into one hands-on process. From the first product decisions through launch, you work with one partner instead of coordinating a separate strategist, designer, and developer. I can help with: • Focused SaaS MVPs and customer portals • Internal tools that make a team’s work simpler • Existing apps that need a clearer user experience and stronger visual direction • Conversion focused websites and landing pages connected to a real business goal I bring 10 years of software experience and build with Next.js, React, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Stripe, Twilio, and modern APIs. My role is to help make the right product decisions early, then carry the work through to a dependable live product. If you need a partner who can shape the product and build it properly, I’d be glad to hear what you are working on.

Having developed my first website in 1994 in GeoCities, I fell in love with the front-end of the web at a very early (for the web) age. I've continued working on software development (interspersed with network/domain administration and leadership) for the last 25 years. I've learned a good amount over that time, both in what to do and (probably more importantly) what NOT to do. I'm looking to make freelance development into my full-time job as I would like to be my own boss and create the kind of culture that best reflects my passions. I am a bit of a unicorn as a software developer as I am far more interested in providing the best overall solution, not only in terms of coding, but more importantly in communicating and finding the right answers for everybody, not just what is fastest, cheapest or easiest. I've been recognized throughout my career for my "soft skills" in addition to my years of experience developing for the web, and communication is absolutely a vital part of what I do on every task.

Let’s build something that your customers will love.

I’m a Full Stack Web and Mobile App Developer with a design background. I specialize in building digital products that are clean, easy to navigate, and most importantly built to solve specific business problems. I’ve found that many clients get stuck choosing between a designer who doesn't code or a developer who doesn't understand design. I bridge that gap. I handle the entire process from the initial UI/UX layouts to the front-end, back-end, and mobile implementation. My focus is on making sure the technology stays out of the way, so you end up with a site or app that’s simple for your users to use and easy for you to manage. With over 10 years of experience working with international clients, I’ve learned that the best results come from clear communication and a focus on long-term maintainability rather than just "getting it done." 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼: • Web & CMS Development: Building custom, responsive websites and manageable CMS platforms (like WordPress) that don't feel bloated or slow. • Mobile App Development: Creating functional, high-performance apps for both iOS and Android. • UI/UX Design: Designing interfaces that look professional but are grounded in user behavior and common sense. • End-to-End Execution: Taking a project from a rough idea or a Figma file all the way to a live, functional launch. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸: I'm big on structure and keeping things straightforward. I don't believe in over-complicating projects. I provide regular updates, write clean code that won't break when you try to update it later, and I always hit my deadlines. My goal is to build something that adds real value to your business, not just a quick fix that needs to be rebuilt in six months. If you’re looking for a reliable developer who can take ownership of your project and deliver a polished result, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to chat about what you’re building and see if I’m the right fit to help.
