What I do

I specialize in high-velocity experimentation platforms: GrowthBook, Optimizely, Convert, and Cloudflare. Building testing architectures that scale isn’t just about handling traffic—it’s about creating frameworks where behavioral insights and technical performance work together to drive genuine conversion improvements.

Experimentation Platforms

Building high-velocity testing architectures with GrowthBook, Optimizely, and Convert. Modern JavaScript and Vite.dev optimization for experiments that scale without compromising performance.

WordPress Performance

From concept to deployment—fast, accessible WordPress sites optimized for conversion. Custom development paired with performance tuning that actually moves the needle on user experience.

Conversion Engineering

Turning visitors into customers through precision testing and behavioral analysis. High-volume, high-impact experiments that reveal why certain changes work while others fail.
