BUILTDIFFERENT

Stroke at 37. Diagnosed with MS 2 months later… Still building!

Current

The Foundation

37

The age everything changed

Two decades of WordPress development. A quarter century in construction. I’ve spent my career building things that last — from steel-frame structures to scalable digital platforms.

Then life tested whether I was as resilient as the things I built. A stroke at 37. An MS diagnosis. Most people would slow down.

I built faster.

The stroke didn’t stop me. The MS didn’t stop me. They sharpened my focus. Now I build with the clarity that comes from knowing exactly what matters.

I build cool shit for people who are serious about what they do.

What I Do

Six disciplines.
One builder.

01

WordPress Development

Complex builds, custom themes, headless architectures, and full-stack solutions. Twenty years of shipping production WordPress at scale.

02

Digital Strategy

From concept to execution. I don’t just plan — I build what actually works. Strategy without implementation is a PowerPoint.

AI & Automation

Integrating intelligence into workflows that scale. Building smarter tools for real-world problems.

04

Construction Leadership

25 years directing builds from blueprint to final inspection. Physical infrastructure expertise.

05

Crafting identities that stand up and stand out. From name to launch to long-term positioning.

06

Technical Consulting

Solving the problems others walk away from. Architecture reviews, rescue projects, scaling bottlenecks.

The Q & A

Questions? Answered.

What makes your approach different?

I combine 20+ years of WordPress development with 25 years of construction leadership and real agency experience at WebDevStudios. I also bring GoHighLevel automation expertise and a personal resilience story that shapes how I approach every build. Most developers know code. I know code, business, and what it takes to actually ship.

What services do you offer?

WordPress development, GoHighLevel automation and marketing systems, digital strategy, branding, and technical consulting. I work through three brands: LovableGazelle.com for home service businesses, SurvivorScience.com for stroke and MS recovery, and BuiltWTF.com for advanced web development.

Why home service businesses?

25 years in commercial construction. I understand real work, real hustle, and what marketing actually works for trades. Most agencies don’t get it. I lived it. I know the pain points because I’ve been on both sides of the business.

What is GoHighLevel and why should I care?

GoHighLevel is an all-in-one marketing automation platform that combines CRM, funnels, email and SMS, scheduling, and workflows. Built for agencies and service businesses. If you’re juggling five different tools to manage leads, GHL replaces all of them. I build and optimize these systems for clients daily.

How did you get into web development?

Started 20+ years ago tinkering with WordPress. What began as a side interest grew into building complex systems, custom themes, and headless architectures. I eventually worked at WebDevStudios at the agency level, shipping production WordPress for enterprise clients. Never stopped building.

What’s your story?

Stroke at 37. Eighteen months in a wheelchair. Diagnosed with MS two months later. I rebuilt everything — my health, my career, my purpose. Now I run three brands, build for clients who take their work seriously, and prove every day that resilience isn’t a buzzword. It’s a lifestyle.
