A Newcastle upon Tyne, UK based freelance Graphic Designer, Web Designer & Logo/Brand Designer with over 15 years commercial experience & wide range of clients. Established Shopify Expert helping new businesses get setup on the Shopify Ecommerce platform since launch.
I'm a Senior Shopify Plus & Commerce Engineer with 8+ years of experience delivering scalable, high-performing eCommerce solutions for growing brands. My primary expertise is Shopify Plus, but my experience extends across the wider commerce ecosystem, including BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Webflow, WordPress and Squarespace. Having worked across multiple platforms, I’m able to approach projects from a broader technical perspective, whether that involves choosing the right architecture, handling a platform migration, connecting external systems or solving complex commerce requirements. My work goes well beyond theme development. I help brands design, build and improve the technical foundations behind their eCommerce operations, including: • Shopify Plus development and custom storefronts • Headless commerce using Hydrogen, React and TypeScript • Custom Shopify apps and bespoke functionality • Admin API, Storefront API, GraphQL and webhook development • ERP, WMS, CRM, fulfilment and third-party system integrations • Checkout Extensibility and Shopify Functions • Shopify B2B and custom commerce workflows • Shopify Markets and international expansion • CRO, Core Web Vitals and storefront performance • Klaviyo and wider eCommerce integrations • High-traffic and BFCM preparation • Long-term technical support and continuous development I’m comfortable working across the full lifecycle of a commerce project, from technical discovery and architecture through development, integration, testing, launch and ongoing optimization. My core technical stack includes Shopify Liquid, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js, Hydrogen, GraphQL, HTML/CSS, Shopify APIs and Git/GitHub. I also incorporate modern AI-assisted development workflows using Codex, Claude and Cursor where they can improve development speed, debugging and delivery quality. Alongside engineering, I bring a strong understanding of CRO and storefront UX. That means I don’t look at a feature purely from the perspective of whether it works. I also consider how it affects site speed, customer experience, conversion rates, maintainability and the store’s ability to scale. Over the years, I’ve worked on everything from complex Shopify builds and integrations to migrations, international storefronts, performance improvements and ongoing commerce development. If you’re looking for someone who can combine deep Shopify expertise with broader commerce engineering experience, I’d be happy to discuss what you’re building and how I can help.
I am a web developer who specialises in all aspects of Web Development from C# to Liquid. I am also fluent in Java, jQuery, SQL, HTML and CSS. I offer as much or as little input as you require and I am happy to consult with your teams to achieve a final goal.

United Kingdom Shopify freelancer FAQ
You get one person who builds, answers your messages and invoices you directly, in your time zone. That suits focused work and ongoing fixes on a store they already know.
A freelancer suits contained work and gives you a single point of contact. Choose an agency when design, development and marketing have to move together, such as a rebuild or a migration. See Shopify freelancer vs agency.
