// FULL-STACK WEB DEVELOPER · DIGITAL PROJECT MANAGER

Twelve years building, testing, and shipping websites.

12+ years of hands-on web development and 10+ years of project management, woven through every role I’ve held. Custom WordPress and Payload CMS builds, React/Next.js projects, MySQL/MongoDB, Docker deployments, and Linux server administration. I know what the timeline actually looks like because I’ve built it from the ground up.
