Dev Services for Design-Driven Teams
I build custom WordPress and Shopify websites that are fast, flexible, and easy to manage. Whether it's a marketing site or a full eCommerce setup, I focus on clean code, intuitive structure, and smart integrations, so your team can design freely and your clients can grow with confidence.
Custom WordPress Development
Need a flexible, fully custom WordPress site that matches your design? I build lean, scalable themes tailored to your project’s exact needs. No bloated builders or generic templates.
Whether it’s a marketing site, portfolio, or something more complex, I focus on clean code, fast performance, and a content editing experience your clients can actually use. I also handle migrations, plugin integrations, and custom functionality as needed.
Custom Shopify Development
I build custom Shopify storefronts that align perfectly with your designs and run smoothly for your clients. From theme development to app setup and optimization, I take care of the details so your team can focus on the creative.
Whether you’re launching a new store or improving an existing one, I help bring your eCommerce project to life with clean builds, solid performance, and a smooth handoff.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are your rates?
Most projects fall between $5,000 and $25,000 depending on size, complexity, and functionality. I’ll provide a clear scope and flat-rate estimate after reviewing your project details. No surprises.
How long does a typical website project take?
Timelines vary based on the size of the project, but most WordPress or Shopify builds take 2 to 4 weeks once content and design are finalized. I’ll work with your team to set realistic deadlines and keep things moving.
Are we a good fit to work together?
If you’re a creative agency looking for a reliable developer who respects your design, communicates clearly, and delivers solid builds, then yes, we’re probably a great fit. I work best with teams that value collaboration and clean, functional results.
Why choose you instead of a dev agency?
I offer the same technical expertise without the layers of overhead. You get direct communication, faster turnaround, and a dev partner who actually cares about your project. I’m not juggling dozens of clients or passing work off to junior staff.
Do you offer hosting?
Yes! I offer WordPress hosting starting at $400 per year, depending on site traffic and the size of the site. I also make sure everything is configured properly during launch, so you’re set up for a smooth handoff.
Are your websites built to a specific WCAG compliance?
Yes. I follow accessibility best practices and build to WCAG 2.1 AA compliance by default. If your project requires a higher level, like AAA, I can accommodate that as well. I also offer accessibility audits for existing sites and can implement any needed fixes.
Do your websites come with any default SEO?
Yes. I handle on-page SEO basics like proper heading structure, image alt text, semantic HTML, and fast load times. For more advanced SEO work, I’m happy to discuss some options.
What is editable on the backend of your websites?
Everything that should be editable is editable. I build sites using Elementor and Shopify 2.0, which gives your team full control and flexibility to update all content without needing to touch any code. Custom fields, layouts, images, and text are all easy to manage through an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, no confusing backends or hidden settings.
A Developer Who Gets Creatives
I’m a web developer specializing in WordPress and Shopify, helping creative agencies in the metro Detroit area bring their digital projects to life. With a focus on clean, functional design and a strong sense of how people use the web, I aim to create seamless, user-friendly experiences.
When I’m not building websites, I’m often collaborating with agencies to streamline development workflows and keep projects moving smoothly. Outside of work, I’m usually playing poker, fishing, strapping on the pads for roller hockey, or hitting the golf course, though I’m often thinking about my next dev challenge.
