Custom WordPress development for polished, practical websites
I build custom WordPress websites for teams that need more than a template: a site that looks considered, loads quickly, is easy to update, and supports real business goals after launch.
Websites start at $2,000 + HST. Built for businesses, agencies, nonprofits, and organizations across Ontario.

Built around your content, not a theme demo
A good WordPress build should make the right things easy: publishing new content, updating page sections, reusing brand patterns, and keeping the site fast without needing a developer for every sentence change.
I typically work with custom theme code, ACF or Gutenberg blocks, practical content structure, and enough design flexibility for your team to move without breaking the site. The result is not a bloated page builder. It is a tailored WordPress setup with clear constraints and a clean handoff.
Custom WordPress themes
Theme development shaped around your brand, content model, conversion goals, and long-term editing needs.
ACF & Gutenberg blocks
Flexible page-building systems that let teams create useful pages without wrecking the design.
Performance-minded front ends
Responsive HTML, CSS, JavaScript, image handling, metadata, and Core Web Vitals-minded decisions.
Accessible structure
Semantic markup, keyboard-friendly patterns, readable content flow, and details that help more people use the site.
Agency collaboration
Reliable WordPress execution for designers, agencies, and internal teams that need senior development support.
Launch and handoff
Practical launch support, editing guidance, and documentation so the site stays manageable after it goes live.
Best fit
For teams that care about the finished product
This is a strong fit if you have an established business, a serious new project, a design that needs careful implementation, or an existing WordPress site that has outgrown its template. It is not a fit if you only need the cheapest possible theme install.
