About Me

I specialize in crafting robust, user-friendly web platforms that solve real business challenges from dynamic job portals and bespoke hospitality sites to secure healthcare systems. By leveraging procedural PHP for custom backend logic, fine-tuning WordPress themes and plugins to match each client’s unique brand, and applying SEO best practices at every step, I ensure sites not only look great and perform smoothly on any device but also rank well in search results.

My goal is to deliver end-to-end solutions that drive engagement, streamline workflows, and generate measurable results for clients.

  • Clear communication & weekly check-ins
  • Maintainable code (no lock-in)
  • Measurable outcomes (speed, SEO, conversions)

FAQ

Do you work remotely and across time zones?

Yes. I’m based in Lagos (WAT) and comfortable syncing with teams in Europe and North America. I keep communication async-friendly.

What does your typical project process look like?

Discovery → scope & milestones → quick prototype → iterative build → launch → handover. I share progress weekly and keep a running changelog.

Can you improve an existing WordPress site?

Absolutely. I audit performance/SEO, refactor theme code, and build plugins or integrations. We’ll start with a quick site health report.

How do you price work?

Fixed-price for clearly defined scopes; otherwise a simple weekly rate. Either way you’ll know timelines, deliverables, and review points.
