**Verified metrics.** 700K+ users in the Templately ecosystem my work ships to ·
40+ template packs personally developed (Elementor & Gutenberg) ·
500+ template packs exported, most of the team's output · 5+ years of experience.

## What I do

I turn design files into pixel perfect production WordPress: Elementor and Gutenberg in
roughly equal measure, built to hold up on every screen and stay easy for the next person
to edit.

## Expertise

- **Elementor development:** production template packs and client editable sites: custom
  layouts, responsive breakpoints, and structure that survives real content.
- **Gutenberg development:** native block editor builds: block patterns, reusable layouts,
  and clean semantic structure that stays fast without a page builder runtime.
- **Pixel perfect implementation:** translating design specifications into production
  builds, working directly with designers and QA until it matches at every breakpoint.
- **Global Style & Typography:** expert level work on Templately's Global Style and
  Typography systems across template packs; the internal reference point for it on my team.
- **WooCommerce & production WordPress:** store and site work on live installs, theme
  customisation, plus the update and maintenance workflows that keep an ecosystem healthy.
- **Frontend, migration & automation:** handwritten HTML, CSS, JavaScript and React where
  a builder is the wrong tool, plus WordPress migrations, WordPress to Astro work, and
  automating repetitive maintenance.

## Toolkit

- **WordPress:** WordPress, Elementor, Gutenberg, WooCommerce, theme development, template
  development, Global Style & Typography
- **Frontend:** HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, React, responsive development, pixel perfect UI
  implementation, Figma → WordPress
- **Development:** PHP, MySQL, Git, GitHub
- **Additional:** SEO aware development, WordPress migration, WordPress → Astro,
  AI assisted automation
