ABOUT ME
Full-Stack Web Developer & Coding Mentor | PHP, JS, WordPress, Drupal
Full-Stack Web Developer & Coding Mentor | PHP, JS, WordPress, Drupal

Learning to code can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.

I’m a Full-Stack Web Developer and Fractional CXO with 15+ years of experience, and I help learners turn confusion into clarity and ideas into real, working projects.

I earned my B.S. in Computer Science from UC San Diego, where I fell in love with the balance between creativity and logic, a foundation that now shapes how I teach and build.

I founded Goldlilys Media after building dozens of websites for nonprofits, museums, wellness brands, and cultural organizations.

Along the way, I discovered something important: people learn best when they understand why something works, not just how to copy it.

🎓 What I Help You Do

Whether you're brand new or leveling up, I can help you:

✔ Understand core concepts in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and SQL
✔ Build your first website or app step-by-step
✔ Learn WordPress or Drupal development without overwhelm
✔ Improve your problem-solving skills so you can debug with confidence
✔ Turn coding theory into real, portfolio-ready projects
✔ Learn industry best practices for accessibility, UX, and SEO

🧠 How I Teach

I focus on:

🎯 Clarity over complexity – No jargon. No guilt. Just understanding.
🎯 Hands-on learning – You’ll build, break, fix, and succeed (with guidance).
🎯 Real-world skills – I teach what actually matters in professional web development.
🎯 Your pace, your goals – Whether you want a career, a side project, or to build your own business.
