I’ve worked in the WordPress space for over a decade, focusing on providing solutions for clients and customers alike that are deeply customizable but also very easy to use. I’m a self-taught web developer and since 2007, I’ve been using WordPress to build websites. I first started using it as a blog for random things while learning to code. By around 2011, I started building various scripts and tools to help automate or extend WordPress. A few got released as free plugins. I have experimented launching WordPress products and services in the past and failed many times. From those failures I have gained experience on what not to do and improve on what I know works. Previously, I freelanced taking various jobs mostly in the eCommerce space. From that experience I have gained knowledge (still growing) and over the past few years my focus has turned towards headless eCommerce with WooCommerce. WordPress has made me succeed in pushing boundaries as a developer — it’s freeing knowing you can do anything with it. I’m currently developing a WordPress plugin called CoCart which brings everything you need to build fast and flexible headless stores using the only customizable REST API collection for WooCommerce. It takes the pain out of developing allowing developers to freely build an eCommerce store using their favourite frameworks that they know and love. It’s currently being used by over 1,700 stores that have gone headless and has been downloaded over 66,000 times over the course of many release updates.
- Released the MVP and the REST was history.
Currently developing a WordPress plugin called CoCart, a customizable REST API for WooCommerce designed to seamlessly decouple your online store from WordPress. It takes the pain out of developing allowing developers to freely build an eCommerce store using their favourite frameworks that they know and love. It’s currently being used by over 1,700 stores that have gone headless and has been downloaded over 74k times, over the course of many release updates. I am the founder and sole developer of the plugin. https://cocartapi.com

Increase the pageviews on your WordPress site as readers continue reading posts infinitely scrolling down the page. I am the sole developer of the plugin. https://autoloadnextpost.com
Went from proof of concept to a fully fledged product within a short window. Testing out key areas of technical complexity for the block editor of WordPress while adding the ability to monetize all or some of the web content. Plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/coil-web-monetization/
My responsibilities vary per task. Mostly site installs and custom plugin development.
