Available to hire
Hi, I’m Akeem Foster, a Web Developer with a strong foundation in semantic HTML5, modern CSS, and JavaScript. I build accessible, performant front-end websites and production WordPress sites using a mix of custom code (themes, plugins, PHP) and Elementor for scalable content management.
I translate Figma/XD designs into clean, maintainable markup, optimize Core Web Vitals, and enforce WCAG standards. I collaborate with designers, marketers, and stakeholders to deliver high-impact features on tight deadlines, and I own deployment processes to ensure stable releases and scalable, reusable components.
