Shopify eCommerce Architect

I'm a Shopify eCommerce Architect. I help DTC brands and entrepreneurs plan, build and scale Shopify stores that hold up under real traffic and real operations.

I've spent 7+ years building and running Shopify stores, from theme architecture and the data model to checkout and performance. I start with how the store should be built, then build it.

What I architect and build

  • Store architecture: Online Store 2.0 themes, metaobjects and the data model, the app stack
  • Shopify Plus: Checkout Extensibility, Shopify Functions, Markets (multi-region and multi-currency)
  • Performance and CRO: Core Web Vitals, A/B testing, conversion-focused UX

Experience

  • Full Stack Shopify Developer, Aroma360 (2023–present)
  • Front-end development and ongoing enhancements, hotelcollection.com
  • Software Engineer, Ripen (2021)
  • Lead Shopify Front-End Developer, Capillus (2020–2021)
  • Web Developer, Allied Health Agency (2019) and LPI Media (2018)
