Hi. I'm Joshua. I make websites work. Web developer with 17+ years of experience in agency and freelance environments.

Professional Background

With 17+ years of WordPress development experience, I’ve mastered the art of creating powerful, scalable websites that deliver exceptional user experiences. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with numerous design agencies, helping them transform creative concepts into functional digital solutions.

My expertise spans custom theme development, plugin creation, e-commerce solutions, and performance optimization. I pride myself on writing clean, maintainable code that stands the test of time.

Websites I have coded have won numerous awards and have been featured on various showcase sites including The Addys, W3, WordPress Showcase, and CSS Mania.

Personal Interests

When I’m not coding, I pursue various creative outlets including art projects and photography. These artistic endeavors help me maintain a fresh perspective that I bring to my development work.

I’m an avid cyclist who enjoys exploring new trails and urban landscapes, and I have a deep love for the outdoors that extends to hammock camping in remote and not so remote locations. There’s something uniquely restorative about sleeping under the stars, suspended between trees, that helps clear my mind and spark creativity.

My free time is often spent with my partner and our two lovable shih tzus, who remind me to step away from the screen and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
