Hi, I'm
Parker.

Friends call me Pasha. I build websites that are fast, accessible and easy to maintain — the kind a small team can keep running long after launch.

(Story)

I've been a frontend developer at Journey Group since 2021, on a five-person team that builds and supports sites for universities, institutes and nonprofits. That means I work across the whole life of a site: new builds, redesigns, support agreements, and keeping CMS installs secure.

On my own, I take on freelance projects for teams that want that same care without hiring an agency. I love writing maintainable, performant code with just the right amount of whimsy — smooth animations and clean architecture can coexist.

When I'm not staring at code, you'll find me at the driving range working on my slice (it's getting better, thanks for asking), going full nerd on a video game, at the gym, or planning my next European adventure.

(How I work)

  1. 01

    Built for editors

    Content models your team can actually use, so updates don't need a developer.

  2. 02

    Accessible by default

    Semantic markup, keyboard support and contrast checked from the start, not bolted on.

  3. 03

    Fast & lasting

    Lean pages and maintainable code that holds up for years, not months.
