For Shopify and DTC founders

When your Shopify theme can't do it, I build the thing that can.

Custom apps, custom features, custom landing pages — the work that's beyond a theme and beneath an agency. One founder who actually codes, working with you directly.

One client spot open right now. The roster stays small on purpose.

A word from the founder. Coming soon.

“By far the best when it comes to Shopify.” — Patrick Peterson, founder, Choju

What I build

The custom work your store has been waiting on.

01

Custom Features & Apps

The thing no plugin gets right — built properly. Metafields, custom checkout logic, embedded apps, the works.

02

Landing Pages That Convert

Custom pages built for your ad campaigns — not a generic theme section. More of your ad spend turns into sales.

03

Theme & Store Fixes

Slow load times, broken layouts, the bug your last developer couldn't crack. I make your store fast and right.

04

Email That Backs It Up

Your build works best with email behind it. I run Klaviyo too — see how the email side works.

Real stores, real builds

Client Testimonials

  • A variant-level shipping system built on metafields, because no app did it right.
  • A marketing KPI dashboard, built as a Shopify embedded app.
  • Custom landing pages and store features for supplement and wellness brands — live and selling.
  • And the email behind those stores: Klaviyo flows that bring buyers back.

We've had the pleasure of collaborating with Matthew and couldn't be more impressed. His attention to detail, coding expertise, and clear communication make every project seamless and successful.

Lee Alkoby CEO & Founder Scent in the City

I've worked with a ton of developers over the years and Matthew is by far the best when it comes to Shopify. Not only is he affordable — but he's super professional, responsive and goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is perfect. If you want expert level help without spending a fortune, I highly recommend working with Matthew.

Patrick Peterson CEO & Founder Choju

Matthew has been a fantastic partner in our Shopify journey. His ability to quickly understand our needs, communicate effectively, and deliver high-quality work is truly impressive. What stands out most is his honesty and transparency - he's always upfront about what's possible and what's not. We highly recommend Matthew to anyone seeking a reliable and skilled Shopify developer.

How it works

One new brand at a time. Here's how it starts.

  1. 1

    The free audit

    You leave with the first three things we'd fix, either way.

  2. 2

    A scoped first project

    One fixed-price build. See how we work before anything ongoing.

  3. 3

    Partnership, if it's working

    Month to month. The average client stays over a year.

One founder, small roster, exactly one spot open. If someone got there first, you'll get a straight answer and you'll still leave with the audit.

One spot. One email.

Get the audit. Worst case, you leave with a fix list.
