About

I'm Ray Turk, a full-stack web developer based in Cleveland, Ohio. I build for the web at Neon Goldfish, a Cleveland marketing agency, where most of my days are spent in WordPress — custom themes, ACF-driven page builders, and the occasional rescue of a site that has seen better days.

Outside the agency I run Code The Land, my freelance brand, and I keep this site as a place to push past client constraints: headless architectures, real-time interfaces, motion, and whatever the platform shipped this month. If client work is about reliability, this is where I get to be curious.

What I work with

Next.js · React · TypeScript · WordPress · WPGraphQL · PHP · Laravel · Tailwind · MySQL. I care about performance budgets, accessible motion, and code that the next developer can actually read.

Beyond the editor

I'm happiest when a gnarly integration finally clicks — a headless build that loads instantly, a CMS that non-technical editors genuinely enjoy, a deploy pipeline that just works. If you want to talk shop or have something to build, the contact page is the fastest way to reach me.
