I am a web developer and technical SEO. As a perfectionist, I enjoy staring at the nitty gritty details and exploring the inner workings of systems.Yes. I’m a bit of a nerd. But not one of the antisocial ones. I genuinely like people. There is something energizing and rewarding in helping others, talking, teaching, and socializing.You may be wondering how I became the person I am. Well, it is a long story. It starts before I was born, but we won’t go back that far. I started building websites in 2013 with simple HTML and CSS. I quickly started learning PHP to enable me to customize Joomla, the first CMS I used. However, I soon discovered getting a site to show up in Google was more work than building the website. With that, I dove head first into the world of SEO. As time went on, the relative popularity of Joomla waned as that of WordPress grew. I reluctantly learned WordPress but was pleasantly surprised to find it works well for blogs, small business websites, and eCommerce sites. I have yet to be convinced that it should be used as the default CMS, especially for more specialized content types or high traffic websites.I recently started learning Python and have built and deployed a few web applications with Flask and Django. I possess a basic knowledge of JS, Vue.js, AWS, Linux, Apache, SQL, Git, and a dozen other things I work with day in and day out. I am never done learning. I have a long list of technologies that I would like to learn.I craft each website as a piece of art. My keyboard is my brush and my next masterpiece is but waiting to be discovered. I love what I do!My focus is on creating websites that are effective marketing tools. Each website is created with care and backed by research and market analysis. My goal is to make each website a beautiful and powerful business growth tool.I don’t spend all my time building and optimizing websites. I also enjoy reading books on marketing and web application development, writing about SEO and web development, and teaching classes for the local chamber of commerce.When I am not busy making the internet a better place, my time is spent with my beautiful wife, Emily, and my newborn son.
