while( innovating ) return "success";

As a WordPress Solutions Architect I have over 9 years of custom full-stack experience in developing scalable, flexible, and enterprise-level applications. I lead these projects from concept to deployment—crafting the ideal balance between design, development, and UX. Working with product teams and project managers, I write the technical WordPress requirements needed to hand off to the development team and delegate tasks according to skill level. I prioritize and take pride in engineering applications correctly and on time. WordPress is my tool of choice. It has the control a client wants, but the flexibility a developer needs. Here’s a few things I pride myself in:

  • Enterprise-level multilingual applications.
  • Multi-network setup and custom setting APIs.
  • WordPress CDN and caching experience including Memcached and APC.
  • eCommerce experience with custom payment gateways.
  • Custom plugin development solutions including content aggregation.
  • Custom extensions for page-builders including Visual Composer.
  • Capability management and custom publishing workflows.
  • WordPress training and mentoring.
