I am a full stack web developer with around 20 years of experience in development, design, front-end development, QA testing, and content management. Highly self-motivated with a recent focus on Drupal development, hobby Java/C++ development, and Raspberry Pi projects.
I also run a small business, Pacheco Studios, where I develop and manage custom websites for small, local businesses. I built this website to re-imagine what a social media profile feed might look like as well as showcase my interests and my work. It is custom-built using WordPress, AngularJS, PHP, and some jQuery.
Godzilla – Criterion Collection Blu Ray Covers
The Godzilla: Showa-Era Films, 1954-75 is a great collection by Criterion. It has some awesome artwork and some great, high-definition transfers of the first 15 Godzilla movies.

Unraid Server Fun
No new updates in some time, but as usual, that does not mean I have not been busy. Aside from attending karate classes with my kids, I had the stupid idea sometime in mid-2020 to completely replace Google for my IT and smart-home needs. While, there is an inkling of anti-establishment thinking in my decision,… View Article
Custom Walker Nav with WooCommerce using Product Category Images
I recently had a need to create a custom, three level navigation in WordPress. The navigation is designed to work with WooCommerce, pulling a product category image from the associated category menu item, and displaying it when the user hovers over the third-level category. Walker Classes are a well-documented way to customize your navigations within… View Article

The theme contains many custom elements which allows the… View Article
Angular and Pizza
I recently started working with AngularJS and have found it to be pretty powerful tool for creating dynamic and interactive webpages. One of my little projects involves a random pizza toppings selector, so I decided to take the PHP version I built a few years ago, translate it to Angular, and make some improvements.
