Profile Description

Dear Talent Seekers,

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Upgrade to see actual info Upgrade to see actual info. I am an American expat who has been living full-time in the Philippines since June 2008. In December 2015, I married my beautiful Filipina wife, and I am proud to call the Philippines my permanent home. I hold a 13A Permanent Resident Visa and I own property in Manila. This status allows me to work as a freelance professional with OnlineJobs.ph, ensuring stability and a long-term commitment to my clients.

I am seeking to build strong, enduring partnerships with clients who value reliability, professionalism, and dedication. My goal is simple: to provide tailored solutions that help you achieve your goals. Whether it’s meeting deadlines, exceeding expectations, or addressing unique challenges, I am committed to delivering results that contribute to your success.

What sets me apart is my sincere dedication to my clients’ needs. Your priorities become my focus, and I approach each task with integrity, diligence, and a problem-solving mindset. My work ethic is driven by the belief that my success is measured by the value I provide to you.

I’m looking forward to the opportunity to contribute to you and/or your team and assist in achieving your objectives. If you're seeking someone who genuinely cares about your business and is ready to invest the time and effort required to make a positive impact, I would be honored to work with you.

About My Rates and Hours:
My rates may be higher than other Philippine freelancers, but please understand, you are not paying for my time, you are paying for decades of experience that I hope will deliver the results you expect and demand.

I consider myself a specialist in all the skills I have developed over the years, however, I know this is not a requirement for everyone. If you are on a tight budget, I encourage you to use the other freelancers at OnlineJobs.ph that offer lower rates. You can find excellent talent here.

My hours are listed as full-time (8 hours/day), however, I’m also available part-time, and for Gig projects. I usually work an average of 12 hours a day.

SPECIAL NOTE: I currently do Freelance work for several clients. My schedule  varies from 3-4 hours a day. I can add up to 8 addtional hours per day, either full-time, part-time, or by the Gig.

Because I have such a large set of skills, I cannot possibly take on every project that comes my way, so I focus on those that align with my expertise, passion, and ability to deliver exceptional results.

When my schedule reaches 12 hours a day, I will stop accepting jobs and projects. Thank you for your understanding.

Skills:
(Onlinejobs.ph does not allow a 5-Star rating on all Skills, so I added the stars manually)

My skills may seem a bit overwhelming, however, I don’t want to sell myself short by limiting the expertise I have developed over the past 2-plus decades.

Education:

In the freelance world, what matters most is intelligence, creativity, and the ability to deliver value. Frank Herbert’s quote, “Education is no substitute for intelligence,” resonates deeply with me. It encapsulates the idea that success isn’t determined by degrees or credentials but by the ability to think critically, solve problems, and connect with clients’ needs. My MBA is part of my past, but as a freelancer, my success is built on experience, skill, and the drive to keep evolving in a dynamic industry.

Why Me?
Clients hire me because I genuinely care about delivering work that meets their needs. I bring a wide range of skills, decades of experience, and a dedication to understanding each project’s unique requirements. My goal is always to create thoughtful, high-quality work that aligns with your vision and makes a positive impact.

I value collaboration and take pride in being reliable and adaptable. Whether it’s a small task or a complex project, I approach every job with care, professionalism, and a focus on helping you achieve your goals.

Thank you for considering me as your Freelance solution. I am excited about the possibility of collaborating and helping your business thrive. If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you again for your time and trust!

Sincerely,
Upgrade to see actual info Upgrade to see actual info

WordPress is one of the most popular content management systems (CMS) in the world, known for its flexibility, user-friendliness, and vast ecosystem of themes and plugins. I create websites ranging from simple blogs to complex e-commerce stores, tailoring the design and functionality to meet specific client needs. By leveraging WordPress, I provide clients with an easy-to-manage website that empowers them to update content, add pages, and maintain their site without requiring advanced technical skills.

One of the greatest benefits of WordPress development is the speed and cost-effectiveness it offers. Thanks to its pre-built themes and plugins, I can quickly develop fully functional websites without starting from scratch. This reduces development time and lowers costs, making it ideal for businesses of all sizes, especially startups and small businesses. Additionally, WordPress is highly scalable, allowing businesses to start with a basic website and expand functionality over time, such as adding e-commerce features or membership areas.

Another key advantage of WordPress is its focus on SEO (Search Engine Optimization). As a developer, I utilize WordPress’s SEO-friendly architecture, along with plugins like Rank Math, to optimize websites for better visibility on search engines. This helps drive organic traffic and improves the website's ranking. Whether it’s creating custom themes, integrating APIs, or ensuring a mobile-responsive design, my work as a WordPress developer ensures that clients have a professional, efficient, and scalable online presence that grows with their needs.

By incorporating keywords and best practices, I help improve visibility, drive engagement, and achieve strategic communication goals effectively. My proficiency in English is a key asset in delivering polished, professional content that meets both creative and business objectives.
