Who I work with

You’ve built businesses before.
This one just happens
to be online.

The people I work with best aren’t tech novices — they’re experienced operators who found themselves staring at a market that moved entirely onto the internet. They have the money, the idea, the business instinct. They just need someone who can execute the digital half.

That’s me. I build the site, set up the hosting, handle the performance, sort the SEO basics, connect the integrations — and I keep you informed at the level you want to be informed at.

“They tell me what they want.
I tell them what they actually need.
They love me for it.”

The zero to one problem

I’m the person who gets you
from zero to one.

Every business that exists online today had a moment where there was nothing — no website, no traffic, no system. Getting from that zero to a functioning, visible, revenue-generating presence requires someone who can hold the whole picture.

I know WordPress. I know AI tools, SEO, page caching, CDNs, VPS hosting, SSL, Python backends, and frontend performance. But more than the tools — I know how to look at what you’re asking for and figure out what you actually need. That’s the thing most clients end up valuing most.

When you’re ready to hire a dedicated SEO specialist, a marketing director, a full-time developer — I’ll help you do that. Specialists are the right call for mature businesses. I genuinely believe that. But first, you need to exist online, get visible, and start generating revenue. In that phase, you need one person who can hold the whole picture. That’s what I’m built for.

The full toolkit

I speak the whole stack
so you don’t have to.

With AI amplifying what a skilled developer can do, I can move into almost any technology and get the job done. Here’s where I live:

WordPress AI / LLM Integration Python Backend Frontend (HTML / CSS / JS) SEO Google Analytics Google Ads Email Marketing eCommerce WooCommerce Shopify Landing Pages CRM Integration Payment Processing Cloudflare VPS / Linux SSL / DNS Page Performance Security & Backups Mobile Responsive REST APIs Zapier / Automation AWS / Cloud Docker MySQL / Databases GDPR / Privacy

The person behind the work

Husband. Father.
Digital native.

I’m a Canadian who fell in love with a Thai woman and chose to build a life in Chiang Mai — one of the world’s most interesting cities for entrepreneurs, digital marketers, and SEO professionals. I’m surrounded by them. I learn from them. I collaborate with them.

I’m a father of two, with a third on the way. That means I take reliability seriously. My clients aren’t dealing with a guy who disappears — they’re dealing with someone who has real responsibilities and shows up accordingly.

I studied geography at university — which sounds random until you realise it trained me to think in systems, patterns, and scale. It shows in how I approach every project.
