WordPress, Elevated.

With the right tools and know-how, I’ve transformed WordPress sites into powerful, user-friendly platforms—supporting everything from content management to online learning. Over the past 11 years,  I’ve created a number of different custom-built websites that deliver real value.

Specializing in WordPress
third-party plugins & automation.

Installing and integrating plugins such as LearnDash, UnCanny Owl, GrassBlade LMS to provide organizations with the best user experience possible. My knowledge extends into the world of data automation (json, xAPI).  Using tools such as Integromat/Make and Zapier to create efficiencies in how data transfers from one system to another. 

Community Resilience Coalition
I partnered with the team at Community Resilience to design a website that reflects their powerful mission: helping communities foster positive childhood experiences that support lifelong mental health and wellbeing.

Geriatric Foundations e-Learning
I designed the Geriatric Foundations website to support an engaging, self-paced e-learning experience for healthcare workers caring for older adults. The site features a clean, intuitive layout that makes it easy to navigate through modules.
