Hi, I'm Liz
Websites built and cared for by a real person.
I build websites, and I stick around to maintain them once they're live. Twenty years in, still answering my own email.
What I do
However your site is built.
Most businesses run on WordPress or Shopify, and sometimes they need something custom on top. I work across all of it, so you get one person who sees the whole picture instead of a handoff between vendors.
WordPress
Custom themes built from scratch, tuned for speed and security, with a back end your team can actually update without calling me.
Shopify
Storefronts that sell. Theme work, app integrations, and the small checkout and cart changes that quietly move your numbers.
Front-end & full-stack
For the work an off-the-shelf theme will never cover. React, Next, headless builds, APIs, accessibility, and the genuinely hard parts.
Why work with me
How I work
Twenty years across every kind of stack means I can read unfamiliar code quickly, give you a straight answer about scope, and ship clean work without the drama. No ramp-up, no hand-holding.

A quiet specialty
Good in a tight spot.
Over the years I've gotten a reputation for stepping into projects that need rescuing. A build that stalled, a launch that's close but not done, a feature the last person couldn't finish. If that's where you are, it's a good fit.
A stalled project
The previous developer moved on and the build lost momentum. I pick up the codebase, get my bearings, and move it forward.
A launch on a deadline
You're close to going live and a few things still aren't right. I work through them and help you ship on time.
A tricky feature
The one piece your current team hasn't cracked. I build it cleanly and hand it back documented.
Hosting & care
Launch it, then stop worrying about it.
Once your site is live, I can keep it updated, backed up, and fast, with a real person watching it instead of a ticket queue.

A bit of past work
Some things I've shipped.
Most of my best work lives behind NDAs or inside other people's launches. Here's a small sample of sites I've built.

The human part
Real name, no gimmicks.
I started building websites in 2006 and never really stopped. Twenty years of projects, deadlines, and other people's half-finished code taught me the thing I'm actually best at: walking into a mess and making it work.
When you hire me, you get someone who answers the email, tells you the truth about scope, and stays calm when everything else is not. Your website gets built, and cared for, by a real person.
