Full-Stack WordPress Developer & Digital Marketer

I am a full-stack WordPress developer and digital marketer, which means I work on the entire stack a business website depends on: the infrastructure underneath it, the site itself, and the marketing that makes it produce. One person, from DNS to ad campaigns. Most projects split that across three or four vendors who never talk to each other. The developer will not touch the ads, the marketer cannot touch the code, and things get lost at every handoff. With me there are no handoffs. My design and development work is exclusively WordPress, focused on sites that need to be designed and built properly, fixed, or rebuilt from the ground up. Most of it falls into one of three categories: sites inherited from another developer that need cleanup and stabilization, sites that worked fine until real use exposed deeper issues, or new builds where the client wants it done right the first time. Across 50+ projects, that focus has stayed consistent. That work runs from front-end design, the layout, visual identity, and user experience, through the custom development underneath it. Under the site, I handle the layer most developers avoid: Cloudflare configuration, DNS migrations, email deliverability, REST API integrations, and automation pipelines that connect WordPress to the other systems a business runs on. On top of the site, I do the work most developers hand off: SEO, Google Ads, Meta ads, and GA4 and Tag Manager configured so you can see which pages and campaigns actually produce inquiries and sales. How I work is the same at every layer. I diagnose the actual cause before changing anything, I do not over-engineer or push unnecessary tools, and I document what I changed and why, so you own and understand your own setup instead of depending on me. If you need a site designed, built, fixed, or finally made to perform, I am happy to review it and give you an honest read on what it needs.
