Projects
A curated selection of projects I've worked on. Explore this portfolio and discover some highlights of my applied experience.
TGR Learning Lab
Developed the TGR Learning Lab websites by transforming a rich Figma design into a fully functional WordPress implementation with pixel-perfect attention to responsiveness. My work focused on integrating the layout with the page builder Elementor, creating a suite of custom and reusable components that capture and extend the brand’s identity across the site as it continues to grow. This approach allows content editors to easily update existing content and build new pages while maintaining visual consistency and performance. The result is a flexible, design-faithful platform that can evolve alongside the organization’s expanding digital presence.
Platform360
eveloped, alongside a talented team, a full-featured web platform that delivers brand and product insight analytics, integrating advanced data automation, form management, subscription payments, chart generation, email triggers, and data enhancement with AI. The backend was built with Python and FastAPI, supporting a React frontend within a serverless AWS environment. One of my key contributions was designing and implementing the automation of real market surveys by integrating with a third-party provider. This involved building APIs for survey submission and management, ensuring consistent data exchange between systems, and processing the results into dynamic reports. The outcome is a robust platform capable of collecting, processing, and presenting tailored insights.
StoneSource
Led the development cycle of these huge e-commerces / catalogues resulting in a fantastic experience for customers. Besides creating the websites themselves with extremely performant features (check their product index pages for amazing filters!), these brands had a huge internal inventory database with which I worked in programmatically translating into a woocommerce-ready format in order to import to the website. In these projects I had leveraged very advanced wordpress, PHP and javascript usage in order to achieve great performance with this large database. The internal admin panels are very customized as well in order to allow the clients to manage the pages, products and many custom post types with ease.
Happy Floors
Oversaw the development of this large e-commerce platform from start to finish, focusing on creating a smooth and fast experience for users. The website includes fast-loading pages and detailed product filtering, employing advanced use of WordPress, PHP, and JavaScript to reach solid performance with a large amount of data. The admin panel was also customized to make it easy for the client to manage pages, products, and various custom post types.
Apollo
This special breed of CMS with a HUGE inflow of custom promotions and updates every week was a resistance test for me for years. Their evergrowing sales demands resulted in many new challenges in terms of interactive landing pages, crazy custom checkout features, dynamic prices throughout the site, and general new features being developed such as a custom cashback/rewards program.
Kredmo
An Australian credit card comparison platform that processes and displays detailed benefit analyses of various credit card providers. I joined the project and expanded the comparison pages from 6 to 15, leveraging the existing logic and enhancing it.
Dymatize
A large-scale WordPress e-commerce project where quality was top priority. This build incorporated multiple custom post types, all dynamically managed using the ACF plugin to create a flexible and scalable content structure.
Nutrex
A fast-paced, two-week integration project for a high-profile e-commerce client. Built on WordPress, this platform featured rich product navigation capabilities, ensuring a seamless and intuitive shopping experience.
Powerbar
The first global-scale project I’ll never forget. Having just joined The Skyline Agency, Powerbar Protein was a simple yet complete catalogue featuring dynamic products based on the wordpress platform. In this project I worked with a colleague developer splitting basically 50/50 the attributions, both front and backend.
This Site =)
A Laravel platform designed to store and manage my professional portfolio while offering some nice features such as skill tags dynamically linked to projects and career experiences. This approach provided more customization and a richer user experience than the standard alternatives out there while serving as an opportunity for me to deepen my expertise in Laravel’s capabilities.
