Consultant and web developer since 2007. I work with agencies, communications and marketing teams, non-profits, public figures and artists. I often work white-label for other studios.

Four ways to work together

Part 01

WordPress → Payload + Astro

Move a WordPress site to a headless Payload CMS with an Astro front end. Same URLs, faster pages, content you own, no plugin treadmill.

→ /wordpress-to-payload-astro
Part 02

Government WordPress → Payload + Astro

The same migration, scoped for public institutions: procurement-ready documents, accessibility by default, audit trail, data residency.

→ /government-wordpress-to-payload-astro
Part 03

Care Package

Managed hosting, DevOps and support in one monthly retainer: updates, nightly backups, monitoring, security patches, fixes, a human to call.

→ /care-package
Part 04

Consultancy

A second opinion before you commit: architecture, vendor and quote review, platform choice, team enablement. By the hour or by the problem.

→ /consultancy
03 · Who I work with

Different clients, same circuit

For

Non-profits

Multisite, donations, programme pages, a team that edits without a developer.

Case: Consuelo Zobel Alger Foundation→ /non-profits
For

Public personalities

A site that survives the news cycle: fast under load, easy to update at midnight, kept online for years.

Case: Kiko Pangilinan→ /public-personalities
For

Government officials

Transparency pages, accessibility, documented scope, a stack the next administration can keep.

Case: [GOV CASE STUDY]→ /government-officials
For

Artists & musicians

The work first, the website second: galleries, shows, a shop, a press kit, and a site that gets out of the way.

Case: Impy Pilapil→ /artists-musicians
