01 / SELECTED WORK

Image Contest Platform

Custom application development and technical leadership

A custom web application that allowed users to create accounts, upload original images, enter competitions, and rate other submissions. Contest results were determined by those ratings, with winners receiving monetary prizes.

Team leadershipFront-end developmentApplication architecture

As development team lead, I helped define technical requirements, built much of the front end, and coordinated the integration of the interface with the backend. I assigned backend work to other developers, reviewed implementation decisions, and helped test the complete application.

The finished platform supported user accounts, image submissions, competitions, ratings, and winner selection.

Pitbull Tactical

WooCommerce-to-Shopify migration and ecommerce development

I migrated a tactical equipment retailer from WooCommerce to Shopify, rebuilding its storefront, migrating the product catalog, and configuring shipping, applications, and sales-channel integrations.

02 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

A little about me

I'm a web developer and designer based in Hayden, Idaho. I've spent most of my career working with agencies and businesses, building websites, solving technical problems, and helping clients understand the technology they use.

I enjoy working on projects where I can get involved beyond the initial development. Whether that's improving an existing system, tracking down an issue, or building something new, I like understanding how everything fits together.

I also run Inland Elite, where I provide hosting, development, and ongoing technical support for businesses and agencies.
