What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build performant WordPress and Laravel products, solve complex integration and UX challenges, and collaborate with agile international teams.

I've delivered WordPress and Laravel solutions for Envision IT Media clients including United Vein & Vascular Centers, Visit Kansas City, Working Credit, and Upstream Rehabilitation. My work includes custom themes, AJAX interfaces, Gutenberg blocks, Laravel fixes, Salesforce integrations, and a Student Rotation Manager plugin supporting 1,000+ Google Maps locations.

At HolaFly, I led a year-long performance initiative to improve Core Web Vitals and user experience while building a megamenu, FAQ system, error template, and affiliate discount functionality.

Previously, I built three yellow-pages platforms from scratch at Archenia Inc—HomeServiceGuide, AttorneyGuide, and HealthGuide—and developed responsive interfaces and CMS improvements for ILUMNO. I work across PHP, JavaScript, React, Laravel, WordPress, and AI-assisted development workflows.
