What I’m doing goes beyond building websites. I’m leveraging plugins like Gravity Forms, GenerateBlocks, and ACF to build better software that solves everyday problems for business owners and freelancers.

The Chief Problem Solver
I’ve been building with WordPress since 2009 and have built multiple businesses that provide services to assist business owners in growing their businesses on the web.
In the early days, my clients started calling me “the fixer”. They knew that if they had a problem, I could fix it, and I did.
It wasn’t until about 2022, when one of my clients started calling me her CPS, Chief Problem Solver, that I decided to adopt that as my official job title.
I currently own Marketing Draft and WP Mantis, and you can find a bunch of my technical writing at Gravity Ranger, where I provide focused solutions for Gravity Forms users.
Another big part of my portfolio is providing high-level retainer support services to other WordPress agencies and freelancers who need the occasional assistance with a tricky problem or a sticky project.
In 2024, I found myself looking for a new motivation, considering new business opportunities, and wondering what to do next.
During that time, I started to notice that I was getting increasingly frustrated and bothered by many of the software tools I was using, and I decided to do something about it.
I would start using the tools I use every day to solve my own problems and build the software I wanted.
And that is what I offer you. The tools and guidance you need to build better solutions for your business.
