Fractional Senior Web Developer

I provide consulting, development, maintenance and support services for online store owners and digital agencies needing my full-stack eCommerce developer expertise on one or more projects.

This is a great option if you’re successful with online sales and need a trusted resource to turbo charge your eCommerce storefront. Add me to your team at 10-50 hours a month at a fraction of the cost of hiring dedicated full-time.

I work efficiently and accurately by billing against client balances in 15-minute increments to the 5-minute accuracy.
