✔️ Decade+ Experience, 32K+ Upwork Hours ✔️ AI-Powered Code Audits & Reviews ✔️ SaaS Development Using AI ✔️ Legacy Platform Modernization ✔️ CI/CD Pipelines & DevOps Workflows ✔️ Drupal, WordPress, Laravel, PHP & Next.js
I help companies build, modernize, and stabilize production web platforms — combining 10+ years of senior engineering experience with AI-assisted development to deliver faster without sacrificing architecture, security, or maintainability.
My background is deeply rooted in Drupal, WordPress, Laravel, PHP, SaaS, and complex web platforms. Today, I also work extensively with AI-assisted engineering, Next.js, React, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and modern DevOps workflows.
AI has dramatically accelerated software development. But generating code quickly and operating a reliable production system are two different things. That is where I bring the most value.
What I Can Help You With
AI-Powered Development & Code Audits
Building with modern AI development tools and reviewing AI-generated or existing codebases for architecture, security, performance, correctness, and maintainability before small problems become expensive production issues.
SaaS & Custom Platform Development
Designing and building SaaS products, business applications, APIs, integrations, subscription systems, dashboards, and complex workflows using AI-assisted development backed by senior architectural oversight.
Legacy Platform Modernization
Modernizing Drupal, WordPress, Laravel, and legacy PHP applications onto secure and maintainable foundations — including Drupal 7 migrations, major CMS upgrades, API-first architectures, and headless implementations using Next.js and React.
Technical Architecture & Development Leadership
Helping teams make the right architectural decisions, review implementations, solve difficult production problems, and turn incomplete or AI-generated applications into reliable production systems.
CI/CD, Cloud & DevOps
Designing deployment pipelines, Docker environments, AWS infrastructure, monitoring, hosting architecture, and production workflows so teams can ship quickly and reliably.
Security, Accessibility & Compliance
Security-focused development informed by my Master's in Cybersecurity, along with ADA/WCAG accessibility implementation and development practices supporting HIPAA, SOC 2, and GDPR requirements.
