Eleven years, one trade.

I started in a web design class in 2015 and have been building for the web ever since — four years of WordPress at an agency, four leading React front ends for a product team, a year on Nuxt.js applications, and my own freelance clients alongside all of it since 2017 — agencies in the UK, Germany and the GCC.

  • Since 2015
  • WordPress
  • React & Nuxt
  • Webflow
  • Technical SEO

In short

Started in 2015

A web design group at RRF Institute, then straight into agency work. Eleven years on, the trade has changed platforms several times and the job has not.

On ThemeForest since 2017

My first WordPress theme was approved that year. Marketplace review is an outside check on build quality, and it has passed several times since.

Freelance since 2017

Alongside the employed roles at first, full-time since 2024. Working directly and white-label for agencies in the UK, Germany and the GCC, alongside my own template marketplace at Codexse.

THE ROUTE

Agency, product team, and my own clients alongside both

Three employers in eleven years, each one adding something the last did not have — platform depth, then engineering discipline — with my own client work running alongside since 2017.

  1. 2017 — PRESENT

    Freelance & Client Work

    Independent · Clients worldwide

    WordPress, Webflow and frontend work for businesses and agencies, much of it white-label — running alongside the employed roles below at first, full-time since 2024. Ongoing with Sky Web Design and WowDesign, with project work through Panze Studio and Quomodosoft. Seventeen builds from across my career are written up here.

  2. 2023 — 2024

    Frontend Developer

    Sumashtech Ltd.

    Nuxt.js applications for a product team — responsive, server-rendered front ends, and the habits that come from working in a codebase somebody else has to maintain after you.

  3. 2019 — 2023

    Senior Frontend Developer

    Peymynt / Payyit

    Four years leading React front ends on a financial product, working to a design system and alongside backend and QA rather than solo. Most of what I know about structure came from here.

  4. 2015 — 2019

    WordPress & Frontend Developer

    Quomodosoft

    Client WordPress builds and, from 2017, themes sold on ThemeForest — PSD to HTML, then HTML to theme, for buyers who open the code and take it apart.

Not a stock library — the actual rooms the work happened in, a decade apart.

    Where it started

    A web design group, and the year I count from. Everything after this is the same trade learned in public: platforms changed, the job did not.

    First theme approved on ThemeForest

    Two years into agency work, the first WordPress theme I built passed ThemeForest review. Marketplace review is an outside check on build quality, and it is a harder audience than a client: the buyers open the code.

    Nuxt.js, in someone else’s codebase

    A year of product work after four leading React front ends at Peymynt. Working inside a codebase other people maintain is where the habits come from — conventions over preferences, and structure that survives you.

    The last team I belonged to

    The web team, shortly before I went full-time on my own. Most of what I do now is white-label work for agencies, which is the same collaboration with different paperwork.

    Meeting the agencies I build for

    Four of the case studies on this site came through Panze Studio. Remote agency work runs on trust, and it holds up better when the people occasionally meet.

HOW I WORK

What eleven years actually taught me

Three things, and they are the reason the case studies on this site read the way they do.
