About
250+ WordPress, Shopify, and custom websites built. I deliver.
Seven years building sites for growing businesses. Here's what I've learned: most developers talk a lot. I just finish the work and move on to the next project.
If your site is slow, you're losing money. If it's broken, you're losing credibility. If it's outdated, you're losing customers. I fix all three.
What I build:
WordPress sites
Custom development from design to deployment. Speed optimization, WooCommerce setup, membership platforms, everything built for performance and conversions.
Shopify stores
Migration, customization, optimization. Payment gateway integration, product setup, performance tuning. I handle the full stack.
Platform migrations
Moving your site to WordPress or Shopify without losing content, SEO rankings, or functionality. Experienced across Joomla, Squarespace, Wix, and custom builds.
Custom solutions
When WordPress or Shopify aren't the answer, I build what you actually need. No compromises.
Performance is non-negotiable
Core Web Vitals, database optimization, clean code, that's the baseline. Your site loads fast or it doesn't exist to your customers.
SEO built in, not bolted on
On-page and off-page strategy from day one, proper heading structure, schema markup, and ongoing authority building.
I actually finish projects
No disappearing. No excuses. Timelines are commitments.
If your site is slow, you're losing money. If it's broken, you're losing credibility. If it's outdated, you're losing customers. I fix all three.
What I Offer
Services Built Around Your Real Needs
From new builds to broken sites that need saving — I handle it all, cleanly and on time.
WordPress Development
Custom WordPress sites built from the ground up. Clean code, solid structure, and built to last, not just to look good in a demo. Whether you need a simple business site or a complex multi-page build, I handle everything from the first wireframe to the final launch.
WooCommerce Setup & Optimization
Full WooCommerce builds and optimizations. Whether you're launching a store or fixing one that's underperforming, I'll get your products online, your checkout smooth, and your store running the way it should.
Speed Optimization
Slow sites lose customers before they even see your offer. I diagnose and fix performance bottlenecks so your site loads fast, ranks better, and keeps people on the page long enough to convert.
Elementor Builds & Design
Pixel-perfect Elementor layouts that look great on every screen size. No bloat, no shortcuts, just clean, well-structured pages that are easy to update and maintain going forward.
Rebranding & Redesign
Got a site that looks like it was built in 2015? I'll give it a full transformation: fresh design, updated structure, better user flow without losing your existing SEO or breaking what already works.
Website Maintenance
Ongoing support, updates, backups, and fixes whenever you need them. Think of me as your site's dedicated person on call, always there, always responsive, never leaving you hanging.
Website Migration
Moving your site to a new platform without losing content, SEO rankings, or functionality. Experienced across WordPress, Shopify, Joomla, Squarespace, and custom builds. Full data migration, testing, and zero-downtime handoffs.
Shopify Development
Full Shopify builds and customization, from theme setup to product configuration, payment integration, and app management. Also available: Shopify to WordPress migration for businesses that have outgrown platform limitations.
SEO (On-Page & Off-Page)
Complete SEO built into every site from day one, proper heading structure, schema markup, page speed, and mobile optimization, plus ongoing off-page strategy to build authority and rankings over time. Not an add-on, it's part of how every project is built.

CASE STUDIES
Case Studies
A closer look at how a few of these projects actually came together.
The Challenge
Luis, the client behind this supplement brand, came to me genuinely torn between Shopify and WordPress. He wasn't familiar with either platform, so this wasn't just a build decision, it was a decision he needed real guidance on.
The Approach
We spent about a week in detailed conversation before we both landed on WordPress as the right platform for his goals. Since he was new to WordPress entirely, I didn't just build the site, I guided him through the whole process step by step: Figma design, finalizing the direction, and carrying it through to deployment.
The Result
The full build, from Figma finalization to deployment, took 1.5 months. Today, the site processes 30 to 35 orders daily. This was actually my very first long-term client relationship, we're now in year 3 together, and the partnership has expanded into ongoing SEO work as well.
The Challenge
This one started small. The client came to me just wanting a redesign and revamp of their existing dental practice website.
The Approach
As we got deeper into the conversation, it became clear the scope needed to grow. What started as a simple redesign turned into a full rebuild, taken all the way from Figma design through to deployment. This ended up being one of the smoothest collaborations I've had.
The Result
Three years later, the client is still working with me. What started as a website redesign has since grown into an ongoing SEO partnership, covering both on-page and off-page work.
The Challenge
This client came to me at the very earliest stage possible, no existing website, just a logo and one inspiration reference. His niche was specific and intentional: apartment rentals exclusively, not general real estate.
The Approach
We started entirely in Figma, going through multiple rounds until he was fully satisfied with the UI direction before any development began. His priorities were clear from the start: engagement, conversions, and site speed.
The Result
Total project time was 4 weeks, split evenly between 2 weeks of design and 2 weeks of development. This project stood out to me personally, I lived in New York City for a period of time, so I understand firsthand how genuinely difficult finding a good apartment in a city like that can be.
The Challenge
The brief for this project was detailed from day one. The client wanted something modern and premium, subtle movement and dynamic elements throughout, but nothing overdone. He sent over a full color palette, a complete list of pages, and needed two distinct Figma homepage concepts delivered same day.
The Approach
I delivered both homepage concepts within that same-day turnaround, and the full design phase wrapped in about 1.5 weeks. Partway through development, the client went completely silent for an extended stretch. Rather than dropping the project, I kept working and saw it through to completion.
The Result
The total build took roughly 2 months, largely due to that mid-project gap. Despite the delay, the final site hit every priority the client outlined: speed, conversions, and engagement, all built to a premium, polished standard.
The Challenge
The client had a clear vision: a furniture store that felt as smooth and premium as a Shopify build. The problem was budget, Shopify wasn't realistic, but he still wanted that same level of polish.
The Approach
I built the entire site from the ground up in WordPress, with custom product integrations designed specifically to replicate that Shopify-level shopping experience.
The Result
The project was originally quoted at 1.5 months. I delivered it in 1, including every revision request along the way. He ended up with the shopping experience he wanted, just built on a completely different foundation than he expected.
The Challenge
Easy Young, a fast-casual Asian bowl concept opening in Anaheim, CA, came to me with their entire brand identity already built out: logo, colors, fonts, mascots, and packaging, all complete before we even started. The scope was specific: 5 pages, a promo bar, social and Maps integration, and full SEO-readiness.
The Approach
I built the site using WooCommerce combined with custom development to support a scalable, easy-to-edit structure. Throughout the build, I worked directly from their brand assets to keep everything visually consistent with their existing identity.
The Result
The final site launched fully on-brand, fast, and mobile-first, structured so the team can manage their own content and expand to new locations without needing a rebuild.
