Sites that load fast.
Code that lasts.

I design and build websites, web apps, and marketplaces with modern tools like Astro, Next.js, and React. Every page is built to load quickly, work for everyone, and stay easy for you to update.

Sound familiar?

If one of these is why you are here, this is what changes.

  1. The site is slow, and people leave before it loads.

    I build lean pages and test them on real phones. The target is 95+ on Google PageSpeed, the free tool Google uses to score load speed.

  2. Every small change needs a developer.

    You get a content system shaped around your pages and a walkthrough before launch. Text, photos, and posts are yours to edit.

  3. It looks fine on a laptop and breaks on a phone.

    Layouts are designed for small screens first, then scaled up. Nothing ships until it works at every size.

  4. You need software, not just a website.

    I plan, design, and build web apps too, from marketplaces like JobsiteExchange to business tools like Basetime.

What’s included.

The pieces of a typical web development project. Your quote lists exactly which ones apply.

  • Page design

    Layouts, type, and components designed for your content, not adapted from a template.

  • Speed

    Optimized images, minimal scripts, and caching, so pages open quickly on slow connections.

  • Editing you can do

    WordPress or a headless CMS, an editor that lives apart from the code, set up around your pages.

  • Accessibility

    Keyboard support, readable contrast, and screen reader checks against WCAG 2.1 AA, the common standard.

  • Web apps

    Accounts, dashboards, payments, and data for products that need more than pages.

  • Launch and hosting

    Domain, hosting, redirects, and analytics handled, with a preview link before anything goes live.

How it runs.

Four steps, with a preview or a check-in at each one.

The full process
  1. Talk it through.

    A call about your business, your customers, and what the site needs to do.

  2. Design the key pages.

    You review real page designs on desktop and phone before any code is written.

  3. Build and test.

    I build page by page and share a preview link, so you see progress as it happens.

  4. Launch and hand over.

    Go live, check speed and redirects, then walk through editing together.

Common questions.

What people usually ask before starting web development work.

Ask me directly
Which platform will you use?

The one that fits. Astro or Next.js for speed and custom features, WordPress when you want a familiar editor, Shopify for stores. I explain the trade-offs before we choose.

Can you redesign a site I already have?

Yes. I start by reviewing what works now, so good content and search rankings carry over to the new site.

Do you build apps as well as websites?

Yes. JobsiteExchange, a materials marketplace, and Basetime, a tool for projects, time, and invoicing, are two examples.

Good work starts with a conversation.
