Background

What I work on

WordPress and agency work

In my current agency role, I build front-end templates and custom ACF-powered plugins for client sites. I also investigate performance problems, clean up infected installations, harden servers and troubleshoot DNS and email delivery.

At Gallery Media Group in New York, I worked on WordPress VIP. I resolved production tickets, developed features and shipped changes through the team's review and deployment process.

WordPress performance work

At Half Price Packaging, site performance improved 10x and traffic rose 5x during my time as website developer, based on PageSpeed Insights and Google Analytics measurements. My work included WordPress admin and theme changes, performance improvements and security cleanup.

At Salsoft Technologies, I worked on caching and page-load improvements alongside custom themes and plugins. I use measurements to identify the slow part of a request before deciding what to change.

Tools and products I have built

Fleet Sentinel brings uptime, vulnerability and update checks, page scans, email tests, an activity log and encrypted backups for multiple WordPress sites into one panel. I set its requirements, developed and tested it using AI-assisted development with Claude Code, and deployed it. The project has 2,832 passing Vitest tests and 21 PHP test scripts.

How to start working with me

A useful brief starts with the website, the problem and the constraints. From there, we can define the work, how to test it and what a safe release needs.

Editorial note

How I research and write articles

Articles on the blog are drafted with AI assistance from a researched brief, then checked against primary documentation (WordPress, WooCommerce, PHP and web platform docs) before they are published. Each one shows the day it first went live on this site, and none presents an invented client, project or result as real.

Evidence for my experience and results

I want clients to be able to check the claims I make. Employment and dates can be confirmed through company references, certificates link to issuer verification pages, and project results are described with their source and any limits on the records I still have. For my own tools, I state test counts in the project write-ups and can show the code to a client under NDA.
