I’m a computer technician by day and a freelance web developer in my spare time. I started teaching myself to build websites in 2000, and I still enjoy opening up a project to figure out how it works and what I can make better.

I started volunteering with WordPress in 2014, building plugins and themes and later reviewing themes for the WordPress.org directory. These days I also work with ClassicPress and build this site with Novaris, a flat-file framework that lets me keep my posts in Markdown.

I use this blog to write down what I learn, whether that’s getting a Docker service to talk to another container, fixing a stylesheet that looks different in production, or revisiting how I built pages in FrontPage. There’s also room here for faith, family life, poems, and birthday reflections.
