Full-stack web developer and technical lead at Fiximer, delivering WordPress and WooCommerce projects.

United Kingdom

Message

At Fiximer, I manage the IT and Digital Marketing department, assign work and deadlines, and support the team’s development. I also plan and deliver digital marketing strategies across technical work, content and SEO.

Before that, I was a Mid-Weight Wordpress Developer at Fiximer, working on custom WordPress and WooCommerce development, API integrations and infrastructure. I also led delivery of a 72 page print brochure.

As Lead Developer at Diva Creative, I led development across client web projects, including an interactive physical activity application for Leicester Partnership Trust and a tree planting initiative website for Derbyshire County Council. Across agency, freelance and contractor projects, I’ve developed websites and web applications using PHP, Laravel, WordPress and Vue.
