Frontend developer 🖥️ building e-commerce front-ends with Shopify, React & WordPress — 5 years of custom storefronts, widgets and checkout flows.
I’m a frontend developer building e-commerce front-ends that are fast and actually convert — from Shopify themes and apps to headless storefronts, React interfaces and WordPress sites.
Day to day that means Liquid, Polaris, React, Next.js, TypeScript and GraphQL: checkout extensions, post-purchase and upsell flows, custom storefront widgets, and Metaobject- or CMS-driven content systems. I care about performance, reusable components and SEO that holds up — and about working close to designers, product and backend teams to get there.
