As a Magento contributor I am skilled with the latest versiosn Magento Enterprise and Community Edition and other content management systems (CMS), I use PHP, MSQL & jQuery to conscientiously create custom code in the LAMP environment. Working hard to apply best practices, I pay particular attention to respecting the core code when developing modules. Clear notes and neat code are important to me.
For the last 6 years, I have been actively using PhotoShop & Illustrator in site design. I have developed many sites which will you will see in my portfolio with PHP/MySQL, jQuery (Javascript), valid CSS semantic markup and a strong initial commitment to Search Engine Optimization.
Happy to work as a team or self-motivated individual, I always concern myself with being productive and efficient in whatever I do. I try to leverage the community code pool to use already completed free extensions and modules as a base to start of custom client needs to save money and time. I also try to put in my 2 cents on what the client needs, that they do not already have (i.e version control, nightly backups, secure password, dev and staging servers, server hosting and proper coding). Research and improving my skill level is a constant feature of whatever work I am accomplishing. In addition to completing full life cycle high quality websites, honesty and strong work ethics are priorities for me.
Be sure to ask recommendations with whom I have worked.
