<?DESCRIPTION 01

I'm a PHP backend developer who's spent a long while in WordPress. I spend my days in the backend at ViiVue, mostly WordPress work, from corporate sites to WooCommerce, with the occasional Shopify job on the side.

off the clock I'm an introvert who reads more than is reasonable. I like fresh air, uncrowded places, and slow days.

<?NOTES 04

  • introvert by wiringI recharge somewhere green and quiet, well away from a crowd.
  • bookaholicthe unread stack is a feature, not a bug.
  • minimalist by tasteI'd rather be calm and right than loud and sorry.
  • private, not secretI stay dim online, on purpose. not hiding, just low-key. the light's still on, though; email finds me best.

#this site is small on purpose, much like the rest of my life.
