    Bio

    I am a freelance web developer with specialties in WordPress plugin development, API integration, and pagespeed performance. I work with a variety of web agencies and small to large companies to help them customize and expand WordPress’s out of the box capabilities to fit their unique business needs.

    I develop and maintain a number of open source plugins available on the WordPress plugin repository.

    My other passions include cooking, gardening, energy conservation (the never ending quest for net-zero), woodworking, and just about anything that lets me work with my hands and get away from the computer every once in a while.
