I'm actively looking for full-time roles, contract work, freelance projects, and agency partnerships. My focus is full-stack web development, especially WordPress, PHP, JavaScript, React, and API integrations.
If you’re hiring a full-stack developer, need WordPress expertise, or want a dependable development partner for overflow work, a short note is enough to start.
Writing
I write short posts on WordPress, PHP, and the tools I actually use on projects. Most posts include code you can paste into a theme or plugin. I write for developers who want something working, not a tutorial that ends at "and so on."
Posts go on the journal first. Some get cross-posted to DEV.to. Nothing is paywalled.

I use Cursor AI, Claude, and ChatGPT as part of my development workflow. AI makes the first pass faster — I review everything before it ships. The final code is something I can explain and maintain.
I'm honest about this because I think it matters: if you hire me, you're getting real engineering judgment, not just generated output. This site was planned and built with Cursor AI.

I live with my family. Nights and weekends belong to people, not projects. Weekdays I take full-time, contract, and freelance WordPress work. I work Eastern Time hours.
