Jenna Cooke PHP Developer

Hi, I'm Jenna Cooke!
Code archaeologist & PHP ninja.

I'm a PHP developer with over 10 years of industry experience, based in Canada... somewhere in northern British Columbia where seeing my friend, Elliot the Moose, is not uncommon. I build scalable web apps, untangle legacy spaghetti code, and sprinkle puns on everything I enjoy.

A knack for solving problems and thinking things through from all angles

Clear, friendly communication with both technical and non-technical folks

Comfort working remotely and supporting teammates wherever they are

Strong time management and self-motivation to keep projects moving

A passion for mentoring and sharing what I've learned

Flexibility and curiosity to pick up new tools and skills quickly

Sharp attention to detail and a commitment to doing things right

The ability to gather requirements and keep clients in the loop

An eye for improving processes and creating helpful documentation

A collaborative spirit to bring cross-functional teams together

Technical Superpowers

PHP Development

PHP: Pretty Handy Programmer!

From Laravel masterpieces to old-school vanilla PHP, I cook up web apps that scale, stay secure, and run smoother than fresh-brewed coffee.

API Integration

I love hooking things up—whether it's payment gateways, CRMs, or cat fact APIs — so your app can do more than ever imagined.

Database Design & Optimization

Data Whisperer.

I sculpt databases that stay fast, tidy, and ready to handle whatever traffic you throw at them.

Legacy Code Improvement

I dig through ancient PHP ruins, dust them off, and transform them into modern wonders.

Problem-Solving

Puzzle Conqueror.

No bug too sneaky, no feature too twisty — give me a challenge, and I'll build the solution.

Deployment & Server Management

I deploy code and wrangle servers so your site goes live without the fireworks (unless you want them).

Linux/Unix & SSH Operations

Terminal Ninja.

SSH sessions are my playground, and I navigate them with the grace of a cat burglar.

DNS Configuration

I point, click, and conjure DNS records like a pro, ensuring your domains always know where home is.

Technical & Non-Technical Documentation

Translation Wizard.

I turn technical jargon into plain English so everyone, from developers to stakeholders, can follow along.

Remote Work & Collaboration

Async chats, virtual stand-ups, and independent hustle; remote is my natural habitat.
