    Bio

    I build monitoring tools that help developers, agencies, and site owners truly understand their websites.
    As the creator of Watchman Tower, my work focuses on uptime monitoring, performance insights, WordPress health checks, and intelligent alerting — designed to make issues visible before they impact users.

    I love working at the intersection of performance, reliability, and developer experience, creating products that stay lightweight but powerful.

    Interests

    WordPress, Monitoring, DevOps, Performance, Site Reliability, Observability, JavaScript

    WordPress Origin Story

    I’ve never been a traditional WordPress developer, but throughout my work in monitoring and performance tools, I’ve always admired the size and strength of the WordPress ecosystem. When building Watchman Tower, it became clear how many site owners needed reliable uptime and performance insights — especially within WordPress, where millions rely on it every day.

    That realization inspired me to build a dedicated WordPress integration for Watchman Tower. Working on this plugin introduced me more deeply to the WordPress community, its standards, and its collaborative spirit. This project became my entry point into contributing to the WP ecosystem in a meaningful way.
