What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote e-commerce and headless commerce work where I can own features from estimation through production support, collaborate with merchants and product teams, and improve storefront performance, integrations, measurement, and conversion.

I've delivered Shopify Plus storefronts, custom apps, and headless commerce migrations for Netalico, Human Good Kind, UPQODE, and other merchant teams. My work spans the customer-facing experience through the catalog, inventory, order, and fulfillment systems behind it.

At Human Good Kind, I led a phased migration to Next.js and Shopify's Storefront API, moving PDPs, PLPs, and content off a heavy theme while preserving Shopify checkout. I also improved Klaviyo event wiring, contributing to roughly 14% growth in email-attributed revenue over two quarters, and ran CRO experiments that lifted checkout starts by about 6%.

At Netalico, I own Shopify Plus delivery across themes, Checkout Extensibility, Admin API and Storefront API apps, ERP syncs, production support, and analytics. I reduced PDP and collection LCP by about 22% and corrected GA4/GTM funnel tagging after double-counted conversions were identified.

I enjoy owning a feature from estimate through production support, collaborating closely with merchants, designers, and product managers. I bring 13 years of web development experience, including more than eight years building on Shopify and Shopify Plus.
