Speed, Security & Optimization

A slow or insecure site costs you users and rankings. I optimize for Core Web Vitals and implement security hardening; SSL, .htaccess rules, backdoor remediation, and WordPress lockdown, so your site is fast, stable, and protected.

A Bit About Me

I’m a WordPress developer specializing in custom, high-performance themes and complex backend integrations. I don’t just use page builders; I write the clean, modern code that powers them. My stack centers on PHP and WordPress; custom themes, plugins, and backend integrations built from scratch, not assembled from off-the-shelf components.

With 20 years across web development, digital marketing, and platform operations, I bring something most developers can’t: deep business understanding paired with technical execution. I’ve managed affiliate programs, launched platforms, integrated payment processors, handled compliance, and done whatever it took to keep things running โ€” then formalized that experience into full-stack development work.

That combination matters. I understand payment gateway integrations because I’ve dealt with the merchant accounts directly. I know why tracking and attribution need to work a certain way because I’ve run the programs that depend on them. I build solutions that work for the business, not just the spec sheet.

My focus is robust functionality, performance optimization, and maintainable codebases โ€” the kind that don’t implode at 3 AM when your payment processor goes sideways.
