WordPress Developer in Toronto

I design and build custom WordPress websites, themes, plugins and integrations. My clients are organizations that have a security review, a procurement process and an editorial team to satisfy.

Custom WordPress Development and Design

WordPress Website Design

Design and development handled by one person, so what gets approved in the mockup is what gets built. Custom layouts for your brand, never a bought template with your logo on it.

Custom Plugins and Integrations

Plugins that connect WordPress to your CRM, ERP, marketing automation or data pipeline, with error handling, retry logic and logging.

WooCommerce

Custom pricing logic, checkout extensions, fulfilment integrations and subscription models for stores that outgrew off-the-shelf plugins.

Performance and Security

Audits that find the real bottleneck, which is usually database queries and third-party scripts. Security reviews before launch and on a schedule afterward.

Multisite and Multilingual

One installation running subsidiary brands, department portals or English and French editions.

Maintenance and Management

Ongoing care for a site that has to stay up: updates tested on staging first, monitoring and backups. 6-Month Minimum Commitment.

Who Hires Me

I work with two kinds of clients.

The first are enterprise organizations in Canadian financial services, insurance, media and government. They need a developer who has already worked inside an IT security review and can get through it without slowing the project.

The second are agencies and growing companies that need senior WordPress work without building an in-house team.

I am based in Toronto and work with clients across Canada and internationally.

Past clients

  • Rogers Sportsnet
  • Great-West Lifeco (Canada Life, London Life)
  • Ministry of Education Ontario
  • Munich Re
  • WP Engine

How a Project Runs

1

Scoping call

A free call about the technical requirement, your existing stack, your internal constraints and a realistic timeline. It is not a sales call.

2

Written specification

Before any code, you get a document that says what will be built and how you and I will know it is finished.

3

Build and review

I build on staging. Your internal developers or IT team can review the code as it lands.

4

Launch and handover

You receive documentation complete enough that another developer could take the work over.

Why Organizations Choose a Senior Developer Over an Agency Team

The person you speak with on the first call is the person who writes your code. There is no account manager in between, and nothing is handed to a junior developer after the contract is signed.

My background is public and checkable. I wrote WordPress Responsive Theme Design Essentials for Packt Publishing and was technical reviewer on Learning Yeoman. I co-organized WordCamp Toronto in 2014 and 2015 and was lead organizer in 2016.

Since 2023 I have also built over 80 AI automations for clients who wanted repeatable results from data-heavy work.

If you are comparing candidates, I wrote a seven-point checklist on how to choose a WordPress developer in Toronto that you can apply to me as well.
