Hi, I'm Ronen

I've been building websites for 21 years.

I'm a web developer and designer in Los Angeles. I started freelancing in 2005 and grew that into Abra, a small web design and development studio. Along the way I've lived and worked in Detroit, San Jose, Holland and London before settling in Northeast LA.

Most of my work today is Shopify and WordPress, plus custom PHP and Laravel apps when a business has outgrown off-the-shelf tools. I also build and sell Shopify sections through Abra Sections and its Shopify app, which keeps me close to how merchants actually use their stores.

What clients get from me: meticulous work, plain answers, and someone who actually answers. I care how a site looks, but I care more that it works for the people using it.

This site is about hiring me for a project. If you want the personal side - a little more about me is on ronenhirsch.com.
