What your business gains
A technical partner who can grow with your business
Many Shopify freelancers focus on the storefront alone. After 16 years building software, I also bring backend and AI experience to every Shopify and product build — so custom logic, integrations, and tools can stay reliable as you grow, without handing the work off mid-project.
Shopify that fits how you sell
Themes, cart flows, and custom apps shaped around your real workflows — not a one-size-fits-all template.
Backend depth when you need it
APIs, data, and integrations built carefully so your store or product can grow without constant patchwork.
AI where it actually helps
Practical LLM features woven into real tools — returns, support, or automation — not demos that sit unused.
Services
How I can help your business
Focused on Shopify launches and custom builds for brands ready to sell and scale online.
Shopify Store Setup & Launch
Go from zero to a live, revenue-ready Shopify store — configured for payments, shipping, catalog structure, and your first sales.
Best for: brands launching their first store
Shopify Theme Customization
Get a storefront that matches how you sell — custom sections, cart workflows, and brand-fit design without fighting the default theme.
Best for: merchants who need the theme to match real workflows
Shopify Custom Apps
Replace expensive app stacks with tailored tools that automate your workflows and keep monthly costs under control.
Best for: merchants replacing 3+ paid apps
Full-Stack Development
Ship custom web products end to end — from polished UI to APIs and databases — built to grow with your business.
Best for: teams building a product beyond the storefront

Process
How we work together
A simple three-step path from first call to launch — so you always know what happens next.
Discovery
Scoping call + project brief
You leave with a clear plan — scope, priorities, and what “done” looks like — so there are no surprises once build starts.
Build
Weekly updates + Loom walkthroughs
You see progress every week and can give feedback early, so the store or product stays aligned with how you actually sell.
Launch
QA + handover + 30-day support
You go live with confidence — tested, documented, and backed by a month of support if anything needs a quick fix.
Typical timeline: 3–6 weeks for a full Shopify launch. Custom apps and full-stack builds are scoped after Discovery.

Testimonials
What clients say
Real feedback from businesses I've helped launch and grow online.
“Ketna made our move from FloraNext to Shopify feel manageable from day one. The custom cart, delivery details, and wedding inquiry flow fit how we actually run the shop — and we avoided stacking extra app subscriptions.”
