Services
What I do
The full build, from technical planning to launch and the upkeep after it, whether you're hiring for your team or need a site delivered.
Headless Next.js
WordPress as the CMS, Next.js as the front end. Editors keep the dashboard they know, and visitors get a fast React site. It works well when marketing and product teams share one stack.
Learn moreCommerce & payments
WooCommerce stores, checkouts and self-service payment portals, with the gateway and integration work that keeps them running on the busiest days. Shopify when it's the better platform.
Learn moreSpeed, access & upkeep
Core Web Vitals tuning, WCAG-conscious builds, multilingual sites with WPML and managed hosting on WP Engine. The care after launch is part of the job.
