File No. 001 – Developer & Designer
WordPress, designed and built by the same person.
10+ years across full-stack WordPress, Shopify app development, and Level 2 technical escalation. I own a build from Figma to deploy — not just the code, the craft too.

The File
Three things that don’t usualy come in one person.
Exhibit A
Build
Custom WordPress from scratch — themes, ACF, custom post types, PHP. Shopify apps and storefronts, Liquid and the REST/GraphQL API.
Exhibit B
Design
Figma/PSD to working site, conversion-focused layout, brand assets — logo, banners, social, ebook design. The visual layer isn’t outsourced.
Exhibit C
Support
Level 2 escalation across Shopify apps used by thousands of merchants. Root cause analysis, reproducible bug reports, mentoring L1 agents.
Built and designed, not just themed.

RSA Scouting
A custom WordPress recruiting platform for college athletes. Dynamic profiles, ACF-driven data structures, and filtering logic for scouts.
WebsiteOnDemand
Shopify storefront build for a Canadian client — theme customization, Liquid, and conversion-focused layout from brief to launch.
OneGift Wonder
RSA Scouting doesn't have analytics on file from this period — it predates the instrumentation habit that came later in my career. What's verifiable is simpler: it replaced a manual, spreadsheet-and-email recruiting process with a searchable, structured platform that scouts and coaches actually used to find athletes by criteria that mattered to them, not just by name.
The platform stayed in production well past delivery, with the client making their own content updates through the ACF-driven editing interface — which was the actual design goal: a tool the client could run themselves, not one that needed me on retainer to update a roster.
VIRTUAL PIXEL PH
Two Shopify apps, owned end to end.
Live on the Shopify App Store since May 2026. Early traction stage — fully built, listed, and shipped solo.
Accessifix AI
Scans Shopify storefronts for WCAG 2.2 / ADA issues and uses AI to suggest and apply fixes — with a dashboard and compliance reports.

FOR CLIENTS
If you need a site built, here’s how it goes.
Phase A
Brief & scope
Figma/PSD in hand or starting from scratch — we define the build and what “done” looks like before any code.
Phase B
Build & design
One person handles both layers, so nothing gets lost translating between a designer and a developer.
Phase C
Deploy & document
Launch, plus the documentation habit from years of escalation work.
