SOFTWARE & WEB DEVELOPER

About Me

Hello, I'm John and I'm a Software & Web Developer.

I created my first website when I was in middle school and haven't looked back. I've been actively developing websites and web applications since I graduated college in 2006.

I've developed and maintained corporate software solutions. I've also developed well over 100 websites of varying sizes, generally within a Content Management System. This includes sites with eCommerce integrations, form management and integration, custom plugins/addons, etc. I've created many custom PHP-based CMS addons as well, to allow for customized functionality on these platforms.

I also specialize in the planning and creation of web-based applications. This includes everything from the planning stages, working with clients to gather and modify requirements, wireframing the application, developing it, testing it, and then iterating upon it.

Below you'll find information on my skillset and experience, as well as some of my personal projects.

Thank you for your interest!
