Available to hire
Hi, I’m Trent Smith, a committed web developer with over a decade of experience building WordPress sites, e-commerce storefronts, and custom front-end features. I enjoy turning complex requirements into clean, responsive interfaces and scalable back-end solutions, delivering practical, maintainable code for clients in diverse industries. I’ve worked with agencies and individuals in Houston, Miami, and Oakland, collaborating with designers, marketers, and stakeholders to ship high-impact digital products.
Currently I’m expanding into Pine Script development for automated trading and continuing to grow my skills with modern frameworks like React and TypeScript. I’m always eager to learn, share knowledge with teammates, and help clients achieve their online goals through thoughtful, user-centered development.
