Hi, I’m Kent Carlo Melquiades, a WordPress-focused full stack web developer with 10+ years of experience building custom themes and plugins, integrating third-party services, and delivering high-performance websites. I enjoy taking designs from Figma/Adobe XD and turning them into responsive, production-ready WordPress solutions using tools like Elementor, ACF, and WooCommerce. I’ve also worked extensively with Laravel and REST APIs—building endpoints, automating workflows, troubleshooting complex issues, and maintaining stable platforms for enterprise clients. I’m comfortable owning projects end-to-end, optimizing Core Web Vitals and SEO, and improving security and scalability with clean, maintainable code (often with AI-assisted development tools to speed up debugging and implementation).…Hi, I’m Kent Carlo Melquiades, a WordPress-focused full stack web developer with 10+ years of experience building custom themes and plugins, integrating third-party services, and delivering high-performance websites.
