A lot has changed since then. I’m seasoned now, peppered and easy-going — not salty.
I’ve got a wife, a cat, and my computer. Soon, the three of us will be traveling the country in our house-on-wheels. What more can a man ask for?
My passion is WordPress. They call me the exterminator, because I love hunting down your pesky bugs. I’m a predator, and the code is my prey. No bug is safe.
One of my favorite aspects of web developent, is the sheer number of technologies one can use. Nowadays, WordPress is being mixed with other frontend and backend tools. I’m familiar with most of them — so if your WordPress website has any other techs involved, rest easy knowing that I can handle anything you throw my way.
My clients are my life. I am here to solve your problems. I want to make your WordPress website better, faster, harder, stronger.

Want to get a feel for how I work? Recently, I created a WordPress plugin that allows you to showcase your Etsy items on WooCommerce. Check out this little timelapse video I put together of my session, from start to finish:
As you can see, I keep my code clean. I use MVC architecture to keep the logic separated from the views, which is good code organization. I comment my code well, as a road map for anyone else working with it in the future.
Well, have you seen enough? My fingers are tingling — hurry up and hire me for your WordPress project!
