00Intro

  Available for freelance

I build WordPress plugins, themes and sites.

Around 45 production WordPress sites shipped as a US agency's development partner, two plugins of my own on WordPress.org, and eight years of client work underneath — with Laravel and Vue for the projects that outgrow a CMS.

Sorbet Magazine

An international fashion and culture magazine, built in WordPress with Elementor and WooCommerce — an editorial site with articles, photoshoots and video, plus a store that sells subscriptions, print and digital issues, and back issues.

Arvale

A fashion and homeware store I designed and built end to end — Elementor Pro for every layout, WooCommerce for the shop, and a custom plugin that adds the features premium store themes sell, on top of WooCommerce rather than around it.

The website for Finland's national beauty pageant academy, running since 1931 — a fully responsive WordPress and Elementor Pro build the client's own team edits day to day.

Shopfront POS

The words "Shopfront POS" set on pale slate, beside four shelf columns standing in for stock levels, the third nearly empty and lit in indigo

A till and inventory application in Laravel — and an audit of my own code, which turned out to be selling stock it did not have and letting the browser decide what things cost.

All projects

02Services

WordPress

  • Custom plugins, from small fixes to React interfaces inside wp-admin
  • Custom themes with a content model the client's own team can edit
  • Elementor and Elementor Pro builds, for teams who edit the site themselves
  • WooCommerce, LMS and membership builds
  • Contact Form 7, ACF and WooCommerce extended through hooks, not by editing the plugin
  • Broken, slow or inherited sites made maintainable again
  • Maintenance, updates and page-speed work

Beyond WordPress

  • Laravel REST APIs, for the projects a CMS should not be carrying
  • Vue single-page applications, with state that survives a bad connection
  • Authentication, roles and permissions built for the actual rules
  • Database design, migrations and third-party integrations

03Experience

2024 — Present

WordPress plugin development

Independent

  • Defer Forms for Contact Form 7 and Nice Select for WP, both public on WordPress.org — each one a job clients kept asking me to repeat, turned into something they can do themselves.
  • Plugins built as real applications where the job needs one: a React builder inside wp-admin over a PHP core, joined by REST routes and extended through a documented hooks API.
  • Laravel and Vue alongside, for the projects that outgrow what WordPress should be asked to do.
2021 — 2026

White-label WordPress partner

US digital agency

  • Around 45 production WordPress sites for clients in construction, industrial manufacturing, hospitality, education and e-commerce — the volume where a set of preferences turns into a method.
  • Custom themes with modelled content, page builders where the client's own team maintains the site, WooCommerce and LMS builds, all to the agency's design files and review process on US hours.
  • Maintenance, debugging and performance work, much of it directly against production.
2018 — Present

Freelance WordPress developer

Remote, via Fiverr

  • 223 orders delivered at 100% on-time for clients in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
  • Design-to-code conversion from June 2018; WordPress builds and rescue work since late 2020.
  • Fixed price throughout, which is where the scoping discipline came from.

The same question opens every project, and it is never the technical one: who maintains this after I leave? It decides page builder or custom theme, and it decides what belongs in a plugin's settings page and what belongs in its hooks.

The full journey

04Capabilities

Eight years of client work, five of them in WordPress — from design-to-code conversion, through around 45 agency sites, to two plugins of my own on WordPress.org.

06Beyond the build

A Contact Form 7 shortcode escaping bug

Form tags being escaped into visible text on save. Found and patched on a live site without touching the plugin's own files — and it is the bug Defer Forms for Contact Form 7 grew out of.

This became a product →

ACF repeater migration with $wpdb

A field group redesigned after the content already existed. Thousands of repeater sub-rows moved onto the new structure with direct database queries rather than by hand.

Selects that arrive after the page loads

Forms added by AJAX, popups and a form plugin's own conditional logic appear after DOMContentLoaded. Watching the DOM instead of the load event is what makes a restyled select work on exactly the forms most likely to need it.

This became a product →

Compiling a visual form down to CF7 tags

A drag-and-drop form has to become tag syntax Contact Form 7 parses into precisely the form that was drawn. Where the two cannot be reconciled, the builder refuses rather than producing something close.
