About
I build the site, ship it, and make sure it gets found
Most people who build websites hand you the keys and disappear. Most people who do SEO have never deployed anything. I do both, which means the technical decisions that determine whether a site can rank get made while it is being built, not argued about six months later when it turns out nobody can find it.
I work in PHP, MySQL and JavaScript, build front-ends with Tailwind CSS and Alpine.js, and use React and Astro where they genuinely earn their weight — this site is one of them. I integrate Stripe, wire up REST APIs, handle transactional email, and manage deployment end to end. 13 client sites are live right now across the UK, Canada and Pakistan.
What I am honest about
I am a solo developer, not an agency. That has real advantages — you talk to the person doing the work, there is no account manager between you and the code, and my overheads are not in your invoice. It also has real limits: I take a small number of projects at a time, and I am not the right choice if you need a team of six starting on Monday.
I am also still completing a BS in Computer Science alongside client work. I mention it because you would find it anyway, and because I would rather you hear it from me than wonder what else was left out. It has not affected a delivery date yet, and the 13 live sites are the evidence that matters more than the certificate will.

Where I want to take this
The plan is not to become an agency. It is to be the person a UK or Canadian business owner is genuinely relieved to have found — someone who answers within a day, quotes a real number, ships when they said they would, and leaves the client owning everything. That is a smaller ambition than most portfolios advertise, and it is the one I would rather be measured against.
