New sections, theme changes, integrations, accessibility fixes, and rescues — from a developer who answers his own email.

Small jobs from $1,000  /  Full setups from $8,000

Two ways in

Improve it, or fix it.

01

Improve it

from $1,000

The site works. You want it to do more, look better, or stop being manual.

New sections, pages, and features
Store widgets and integrations that react to store events
Appearance and layout refinement
Responsiveness fixes for awkward screen sizes
Bulk data operations and cleanup
Klaviyo and email flow fixes
What else I do
02

Fix it

$150/hr · audits from $1,000

Something is broken, slow, insecure, or inaccessible — and it needs a developer, not a support ticket.

Hacked, spammed, or compromised
Integrations that stopped working
Slow pages and rising hosting costs
WCAG 2.2 accessibility failures
Abandoned by your last developer
What else I do
When a rescue would be too big

When fixing isn't enough — or WordPress has to go.

Fuse is the starter I built and maintain: Astro on Cloudflare, a real content admin, document library, notices, search, and a contact inbox. I customize it for your organization and hand it over running.

Work

Built, then kept running.

All work
Organization site · Custom build from scratch

LNID

A 1990s-era association site replaced with a custom build: member tools, document library, notices, events, and a content admin the board can actually use.

BigCommerce · store features

Features that fit the theme

Custom sections, widgets, and integrations wired into the existing theme, including automations that react to store events.

Shopify · theme

A theme that fits

Marketplace theme rewritten for a working catalog: custom sections, merchandising rules, and a checkout path that survives mobile.

Catalog operations

Bulk work, done carefully

Thousands of products imported, exported, edited, and cleaned up in batches, with variants, metafields, and collections intact.

Store and integration work delivered as lead developer at a digital agency. Client names withheld.

How I work

One developer. No relay.

01

No account managers

You email me and I build it. There is no handoff to a junior, no project manager relaying questions, no one to escalate past.

02

Senior code, reviewed

I use modern tooling to move fast and cut cost, including AI for drafting, refactors, and audits. Every line is read before it ships.

03

I answer my own email

One business day, usually sooner. If something is on fire, say so in the subject line and it gets looked at that day.

04

Small-org rates

No minimum engagement, no retainer required to get in the door. Rescue and ad-hoc work is $150/hr, quoted before it starts.

Free

Free site teardown.

Send me your URL. I will record a five-minute walkthrough of your site with three specific fixes and send it back within two business days. No pitch, no invoice.

Request a teardown

A handful each week, first come.

Questions

Before you email.

What does a typical job cost?

Improvements start at $1,000, store theme work at $2,000, accessibility work at $1,000, and ad-hoc fixes are $150/hr. A full site setup on Fuse starts at $8,000, and care plans start at $100/month. Every job is scoped and quoted before any work begins.

How fast can you start?

Most jobs start within one to two weeks. Urgent fixes — a broken checkout, a hacked site, an integration that stopped syncing — are usually same week.

Do you work with Shopify and BigCommerce, or only custom builds?

Both platforms, plus ShareTribe marketplaces — mostly on the operations side: marketplace theme setup and customization, store features and event-driven integrations, Klaviyo flows, and connector fixes. I do not take on full store builds from scratch. If that is what you need, I will tell you up front.

Can you take over a site from another developer or agency?

Yes. Most of my work starts there. I read the code before I promise anything, and I will tell you honestly whether it is worth keeping or rebuilding.

What happens if my site breaks?

Email me. Urgent problems are usually same week, billed hourly at $150. If it turns out to be a five-minute fix, you get charged for five minutes.

Do you use AI, and where does my data go?

Yes, for drafting, refactoring, and audits — it is how a one-person shop stays affordable. Everything is reviewed by me before it ships. I do not put client code, customer data, or credentials into a model that trains on it, and I will sign an NDA that says so.

Do you work with government and public agencies?

Yes — municipalities, towns, villages, irrigation and special districts. I am comfortable with NDAs, purchase orders, and standard procurement processes, and WCAG 2.2 AA work is part of the offering rather than an afterthought.

What if the site needs a full rebuild?

Then it becomes a Fuse setup, starting at $8,000, or a from-scratch custom build quoted separately. Either way you get a straight answer about which one you actually need.
