Public repos and tools on GitHub

Teleport Atlas

Next.js with Sanity landing page built from a Figma spec as part of a Teleport front-end coding challenge. Canvas product animations, zero axe violations, 100 Lighthouse mobile run, and font subsetting reducing loads by 89%. Docker containerization and PNPM hardening to protect against supply chain attacks.

Core WP

WordPress starter framework for Full Site Editing block themes, replacing the WP Foundation 6 starter framework I used before 2022. It runs on Docker, so every developer gets the same PHP, NGINX, and MariaDB setup. Fixing instances of "well it works on my machine" situations.

WP Exit Intent Popups

WordPress plugin for exit-intent and timed popups with A/B testing and Google Analytics 4 tracking, redesign from a feature I made at Seismic. The production team can add modals to request-a-demo pages without developer intervention, so a visitor who is about to leave without filling out the form sees a popup first.

WP Personalization

A personalization layer for WordPress block themes. It works out a visitor's market segment and renders the matching layout, so a SaaS company can show one message to finance and another to healthcare. Segment detection uses the visitor's IP address today, and in production it would more likely come from a ZoomInfo or 6sense signal. This is not production ready, but more of an experiment of how I would implement it inside of WordPress.

Claude Overwrite Features (VS Code)

A companion VS Code extension that patches five features in Claude Code's VS Code extension that didn't match how I work, and adds commands that route Claude to a local Ollama model when needed. I found the five issues from daily use and wrote out the change I wanted, then directed Claude Code through the implementation.

YouTube Playlist Module

Utilizing the YouTube API, this plugin pulls in specific YouTube videos into a custom UI that can be custom styled for any client. Purposefully built with minimal CSS for that purpose. Initially built for medical clients who needed to display custom videos on their website.
