🎸 Hey there! Welcome to my digital playground

I'm a web developer with 20+ years of battle scars and countless late-night debugging sessions under my belt. This is my personal portfolio – built with love, Laravel, and probably too much enthusiasm.

🤘 What's This All About?

This site is where I showcase my work, share random thoughts about web development, and occasionally post photos that I think are cooler than they actually are. Think of it as my digital business card, but with more personality and way better syntax highlighting.

🛠️ Built With The Good Stuff

Backend Magic:

• PHP 8.4 - Because life's too short for old PHP
• Laravel 12 - The framework that makes PHP feel like poetry
• Statamic CMS 5 - For when WordPress feels too mainstream
• Composer - Keeping dependencies in line since forever

Frontend Wizardry:

• Vite - Lightning-fast builds (faster than my drum solos)
• TailwindCSS - Making CSS fun again
• Alpine.js - Vue's little sibling that packs a punch
• PostCSS - Because vanilla CSS is for vanilla people

Content & Fun:

• Markdown - Writing like a developer should

🎯 What I Do (When I'm Not Playing Drums)

I've been slinging code for over two decades, specializing in:

• PHP Development (Laravel, WordPress) - Making servers happy since the early 2000s
• JavaScript Frameworks (Vue, React, Svelte) - Because vanilla JS is so last century
• Full-Stack Solutions - From database to design, I've got you covered
• Photography - Capturing moments between debugging sessions

🥁 Life Outside The Terminal

When I'm not staring at code, you'll find me:

• Playing drums for two bands: Dead Dog Summer and Youth Against 🥁
• Smashing squash balls (the sport, not the vegetable) 🏸
• Taking photos of things that catch my eye 📸
• Keeping up with the latest JavaScript framework that came out 5 minutes ago (they multiply faster than bugs)
