About Ricardo
I started hand-coding websites in 2006. Twenty years later, I'm the developer agencies call to build, fix and speed up WordPress sites — with SEO baked in from the first line.
I studied Computer Engineering at the University of St. La Salle in Bacolod, led web teams at August 99 in Ortigas, and since 2014 have worked remotely as a Senior WordPress Developer for US agencies — most recently eight years with Wildcat SEO, building and maintaining websites for businesses across Tucson, Arizona. I work in custom PHP, every major page builder, WooCommerce and Shopify — and I design the banners and graphics too.

Online stores that are easy to manage and easy to buy from, on WordPress or Shopify.
