Hello Charts is a block-first and beautiful way to add charts to a WordPress website. As part of Hello WP, a 3-person team, we create block-editor native plugins for WordPress. I am one of two developers building out the Gutenberg-based plugin. We use Chart.js to bring each chart to life and make it fully customizable for the user's needs. Hello, Charts is in continuous development.

KoalaBoss is a WordPress maintenance platform solution. I was involved in building the file and database backup and restore stream on the WordPress plugin side, which uses the AWS SDK and interfaces with the KoalaBoss API. Instead of a traditional zip file backup solution, which takes a lot of time and memory to zip large files and needs additional disk space to store the zip files, I used the Amazon S3 stream wrapper to connect directly to an AWS S3 bucket and stream the files unzipped to AWS for storage. Not only did it take seconds to stream the files (limited to the bandwidth speed supplied by the host), but it also used very limited memory to do so by restricting 50 MB to be stored in memory at any time. This also meant that the client didn't need any additional disk space to run backups on their server.

I handled all client support and feature development of the WooCommerce Store Exporter for two years. These plugins are exclusively for exporting and importing WooCommerce data. I did major upgrades, such as integrating Google Sheets and migrating from old libraries to PhpSpreadsheet, fixed bugs, and delivered custom jobs.

I worked as part of the WordPress team to develop a plugin that interfaced with Microsoft Dynamics CRM as we built out a new members portal. The WordPress theme made use of the Sage Roots file structure. The plugin was called Caviar and pulled in information from the user database in Dynamics to direct members to different portals based on their membership. The membership determined which login page to use, which products they could buy, and what benefits they were entitled to. I was initially brought in to handle all WooCommerce matters, but I contributed to additional areas inside the WordPress space as the project grew.

Crankit Fitness was a freelance job to make design and SEO improvements on the existing site and add more features to the existing WordPress theme. I used ACF and CPT to display post data and SCSS for styling.

I assisted in the maintenance and feature development of the complex WordPress theme for Safari Frank. The site specialized in providing custom wildlife adventures in Africa for international tourists. The theme used ACF, WPML, Gravity Forms, interactive maps, and more.

DDP was my first-ever site built from the ground up using Node.js, Express.js, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The site is for a music producer to download raw tracks from clients and mix and master the files before uploading the finished product to the cloud for downloading.
