WordPress Websites
I built and edited many WordPress sites during my time at EpiBuild. I also maintain a personal blog using WordPress.
I pay special attention to site speed, readability, and ease of navigation when I work.
My tools of choice include:
- Favorite theme: Astra
- Speed plugins: Asset CleanUp, Flying Scripts, Hummingbird, Smush, SiteGround Optimizer
- Other plugins: Updraft Plus for backups, Sucuri Security, Yoast SEO, Google Site Kit
Sites from Scratch

Truly TLC Pet Sitting
I enjoyed modernizing this website for a fresh look and feel.
