Full-stack Developer
Greetings, I'm Edward, a full-stack developer, deeply skilled in WordPress here to supercharge your sites.
About
Greetings, friend! I'm Edward, a developer and artist based in NYC. I believe in harnessing the powers of technology, design, and creativity for the betterment of humanity.
In my 15 years of web development experience, I've helped many non-profits--arts and culture, workforce development, climate change, digital equity and more--as well as publishers, news outlets, and trade associations in reaching their goals through effective web presences.
Using primarily WordPress, I’ve built custom front-ends and user experiences, enhanced workflows with custom plugins and blocks, and integrated WP with other business systems like CRMs, membership databases, and payment processors. All of this with an eye toward compelling aesthetics, ease of use, and lots of documentation.
See some highlights of recent work.
What I offer
- Per-project contracts: if you need support in achieving a specific goal
- Consulting and documentation: put my experience to work for you
- Staff augmentation: if you’re looking to enhance your in-house technical resources, but not ready for or interested in adding permanent staff
