Coder, Website designer & CTO

I write every guide on this site, and I do the work I write about. I draw on a thirty-year career across health, finance, recruitment and software development. I have owned businesses and worked inside enterprises, and I have managed departments and high-performance teams. That range means each guide comes from someone who has made the call and lived with the result.

Jerrell Niu, founder of I Love Digital

Why I am worth reading on this.

Everything here comes out of client work. I build the websites, run the search and the reporting, and sit in the meetings where the results get explained. Each guide describes what actually moved the numbers on a real Australian business.

My career started a long way from websites. I have worked as a doorman and a club manager in Sydney's nightlife, as a Cardiac Care Specialist in a leading private hospital, and in finance at ANZ Bank. I started a security business and ran it for six years. I have also worked in commercial finance, recruitment and software development. I have seen how a business runs from the floor, the back office and the boardroom, and these guides are written for the person who has to cover all three.

I spent seven years at Coding Labs as Product Manager and then Executive Board Member, leading product across web and mobile and growing the engineering team by 500 per cent in three years. Before that I ran recruitment as General Manager at 99 Resumes, after technical recruitment leadership at MCS Consulting and Vanarden Mining Oil and Gas. Earlier still I spent six years in commercial finance. I have run teams, hired them, financed them and built the products they use, so the advice here is commercial before it is technical.

I started I Love Digital in 2024. Every article is written to the same standard I hold client work to: plain English, a clear answer in the first line, and no claim without something behind it.

What I write about.

Websites

I build websites in Next.js, Shopify, WordPress, Squarespace and Wix, and design them in Figma. I write the code myself, so these guides cover what breaks as well as what works.

Search

I run technical SEO, on-page work, Google Business Profile and AI search for clients. Every result is measured in Google Search Console on live accounts, which is where the figures in these guides come from.

Socials

I write content calendars, captions and scripts for Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. They are built for small teams who have to run social alongside the actual job.

Consulting

I do fractional CTO work and build the automation and systems that take admin off a business owner's desk. The tooling and workflow guides come out of that.

Track record.
