Darrell R Ulm – WordPress Developer | PHP & MySQL Specialist | Data Science & AI Engineer

I am a professional WordPress developer with extensive experience designing, developing, and maintaining high-performance websites and custom web applications. My expertise includes building custom PHP/MySQL plugins for WordPress, optimizing site performance, and ensuring long-term scalability and reliability.

Beyond WordPress development, I have a strong computer science foundation with hands-on experience in C and C++. I have completed advanced academic and practical projects in Algorithms, Parallel Computing, and distributed systems, applying structured problem-solving and performance optimization techniques.

In the data engineering and analytics space, I work with Apache Spark and Python, including PySpark for large-scale data processing. My Data Science experience includes Machine Learning model development and experimentation using Jupyter Notebook, with a focus on practical AI applications and Neural Networks.

I also bring broad full-stack web development experience using PHP, MySQL, HTML, and JavaScript to build secure, responsive, and scalable web solutions. Additionally, I have experience developing interactive applications in Unity3D using both C# and JavaScript.

As an open-source contributor, I have worked with Koha ILS, supporting community-driven software development and collaborative engineering practices.

Recently, I have been focused on advanced Python development for Artificial Intelligence, including Neural Networks and Large Language Models (LLMs), building intelligent systems and exploring modern AI architectures.
