Full-Stack Web Developer

  • CMS & Platform Engineering: I develop on WordPress using PHP to build custom post types, advanced custom fields and child themes, tailoring each site's frontend architecture to the project at hand. I extend functionality with plugins like WooCommerce, Elementor, and Divi Builder based on client requirements, and have also worked extensively within Squarespace's infrastructure to customize beyond its native capabilities.
  • Deployment & Database: Experience with hosting platforms like Hostinger and Vercel for deploying client websites and web applications, managing MySQL databases through phpMyAdmin for Hostinger-based projects, and using Firebase for database and backend needs on select web app projects.
  • Full Stack Development: I use Tailwind CSS to maintain visual consistency and responsiveness across devices, and build web applications with React and Next.js, incorporating TypeScript on select projects for stronger type safety. On the backend, I work with Node.js, occasionally integrating Python where a project calls for it. I also consume and integrate REST APIs to pull and connect content across different frontends.
