I build custom WordPress and design the sites I build. I also do Laravel product work on systems that are already in production. Eight years in the PHP ecosystem. Bogotá, I start by reading what's already there: code someone else wrote, or someone else's words waiting for a site. Only then do I decide what it should be. |

Custom WordPress that needs a design, not a template |
Copywriting or photography — I design around yours |
The brief both times was the login details and two adjectives: "modern and pretty." No design, no guide, nothing to inherit.
The Dover Street Examiner The voice was already paranoid parody. So direct it straight: the more convinced the design, the funnier the text. type heavy grotesque + mono · texture real night photography |
Clute Institute No color to inherit. Teal instead of every newspaper's navy, and far from Dover on purpose. type high-contrast serif + mono · texture generative polygons |
Same Elementor install. Two sites with nothing in common, on purpose: two clients of one agency shouldn't converge.

Amanda Escalona · landing page · 2025 · before ↗ A freelance copywriter's site is her sales channel. No product to photograph, nothing to inherit: the only material was her own writing, in two languages. So the type system carries the design.

Hago WordPress a medida y diseño los sitios que construyo. También hago producto en Laravel sobre sistemas que ya están en producción.
Ocho años en el ecosistema PHP. Bogotá, GMT−5, en horario compatible con Estados Unidos. Abierta a puestos full-time remotos y a trabajo white-label para agencias.
Dos publicaciones, misma agencia, con semanas de diferencia. El encargo las dos veces fueron los accesos y dos adjetivos: «moderna y linda». Sin diseño, sin guía, nada que heredar. Mismo Elementor, dos sitios que no se parecen en nada, a propósito: dos clientes de una misma agencia no pueden converger.
Lo que hago son dos cosas que parecen distintas. Dar forma a lo que no la tiene —diseño web, UI, sistemas tipográficos— y arreglar lo que ya está corriendo —refactor, multi-tenancy, pasarelas de pago, legacy que nadie quiere abrir—. Es el mismo verbo: leer lo que escribió otro, código o texto, y encontrar dónde la realidad se separó de la intención.
Para empezar: traé el stack trace, o dos adjetivos.
