Why me instead of an agency?

You own 100% of it

I don't do turnkey WordPress you can't modify. I code your site in pure PHP/HTML/CSS — the code is yours, no license, no hidden subscription.

No paid plugins

No dependencies on plugins costing €200/year. No page builder slowing everything down. Lightweight, fast, durable code.

Remote, video, iterative

From the Atlantic coast, I work via HD video calls with screen sharing. Weekly deliveries, real-time adjustments.

30 years of technical experience

From France Télécom to IoT startups to sailing. I don't just make things pretty — I make them solid, secure, maintainable.
