About

Hi, I’m Shawn DeWolfe, a hands-on web developer with a long-standing focus on WordPress and Drupal, plus PHP, MySQL and front-end technologies. I’ve built and extended numerous sites, integrated data sources via APIs, and deployed projects on AWS and LAMP stacks. I enjoy turning complex problems into robust, scalable solutions and mentoring teams to deliver high-quality results.
Over the years I’ve worked with organizations including Royal Roads University, University of Victoria, Carmanah Technologies, and others, often as a lead developer or senior engineer. I thrive on bridging design and architecture, optimizing performance, and delivering practical web-based tools to meet client needs. When I’m not coding, I contribute to open source and keep learning about new web technologies.
