WordPress Developer & Technical SEO Expert | Elementor | Local SEO

I build and fix WordPress sites for local service businesses that actually need to rank and convert, not just look good. My clients range from enterprise AI platforms to local service businesses; the technical fundamentals stay the same; what changes is the audience and the stakes. Top Rated on Upwork, 100% Job Success Score, 1,700+ hours logged, 28 completed jobs, 83% long-term client relationships. Portfolio below has real client URLs, not templates. 6 years in the online freelancing field overall, with a growing specialization in WordPress development and technical SEO over that time. I work primarily as an independent freelancer, and I'm equally comfortable collaborating within a team when a project calls for it. Either way, you'll be working directly with me.
