Custom Website Development
Custom websites designed around real content, user goals, and long-term maintainability. I help plan site architecture, page structure, and scalable front-end systems that are clean and easy to manage.
Creative Ideas Become Working Systems
I build websites, games, interactive experiences, and custom software tools that combine creative design with practical functionality. My work spans WordPress development, custom web applications, game projects, interactive media, CMS architecture, and purpose-built tools for creative and business workflows.
My background in audio, design, media production, and creative strategy gives me a different perspective on development. I approach websites and software as communication systems: they need to look right, feel intuitive, support the user’s goals, and solve a real problem.
Whether I’m building a custom WordPress theme, browser-based game, workflow tool, or database-backed application, my focus is on creating digital experiences that are useful, clear, and thoughtfully designed.
Capabilities
WordPress & CMS Systems
WordPress and CMS builds with custom themes, ACF-driven content models, and flexible admin editing experiences. Ideal for portfolios, service sites, and content-heavy business websites.
Web Applications
Lightweight web applications for workflows that do not fit off-the-shelf software. These builds often include authentication, records, dashboards, reporting, and custom admin interfaces.
Custom Tools & Automation
Purpose-built utilities and workflow tools designed around specific business and creative needs, including process automation, integration helpers, and internal productivity systems.
Games & Interactive Media
Interactive projects that blend design, programming, and systems thinking. Experience includes browser-based games, prototypes, and interaction-driven media with strong creative direction.
Creative Technology & AI Workflows
Creative technology systems that support media production and experimentation, including API integrations and AI-assisted workflows that accelerate production without losing control of output quality.

Professional Development + Technical Leadership
Custom websites and web applications using JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, AngularJS, WordPress, PHP, and MySQL.
Custom themes, plugins, article template refactoring, CMS architecture, feature development, and WordPress data/content management workflows using WP-CLI.
Wireframes, mockups, user experience prototypes, and interface design for websites and applications.
Project scoping, budgeting, client communication, and schedules, with experience managing projects across both US-based and international teams using tools like Jira and Trello for planning and delivery tracking.
Production tracking and release workflows using Git across GitHub and Bitbucket, plus API workflows, Python scripts, data cleanup across production systems, and Linux/VPS environment setup on AWS, Linode, and InMotion Hosting.
Built and managed VPS and virtual server environments, including Linux machine provisioning, server configuration, and deployment support for web applications and CMS platforms.
Beyond the select projects featured here, I have professional experience across front-end development, full-stack WordPress development, UX/UI design, technical project management, and custom web applications.
I’ve built websites, web apps, WordPress themes, plugins, UX prototypes, and custom CMS-driven systems for clients and organizations including Adweek, The American Bar Association, The University of Arizona, and small businesses through my own web design and development company. My background also includes managing international development teams, writing project scopes, improving technical workflows, and using APIs and Python scripts to solve production and data problems.
This work gives me a practical foundation for building digital systems that are not only visually clear, but maintainable, usable, and aligned with real business needs.
