SUMMARY
Fullstack web developer with four years of commercial experience, working on a project or hourly basis. I have delivered 13 production websites and a CRM platform, each built solo from
the ground up: WordPress sites implemented from supplied Figma designs, custom Shopify themes, and React/Node.js applications.
You work with one person from the first commit to deployment, so nothing gets lost passing a project between a designer, a developer and a DevOps engineer. My UX/UI background
means I can start either from a finished design file or from a rough brief.

HOW I WORK
On fixed-scope projects I write the scope down, estimate it with the assumptions stated, and deliver against milestones. The cost is known before work starts.
On hourly work I take ongoing features, maintenance, bug queues and integrations, and report time against tasks.
I work directly with owners and non-technical stakeholders, and turn loose briefs into tasks that can actually be estimated.
I work async by default: written status updates, and blockers raised the day I hit them.
I get productive on an unfamiliar codebase quickly and write down what I find as I go.
I am glad to start with one small task, or a paid discovery, before we agree on anything larger.
You pay for delivered work rather than for hours on a payroll, and you can add or drop hours around a launch without running a hiring process.
