Path
I came from Graphics...
My career began started in Graphic Design, and slowly but surely led to Web Design, then Web Development. I still enjoy using Design Applications (for pulling assets, etc): Sketch, Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator as part of the Web Development process.
A Designer, turned Developer...
It was very important to me to make the leap and understand true front end development, because ultimately I want to be able to create dynamic web applications that use the latest frameworks such as React.js and Vue.js. I had the opportunity to take on PHP and MySQL and I built both a commerical application and a shopping cart. I think my background in design helped as in the end they both looked fabulous and functioned well.
Virtual Dom & Data binding! Yes Please
Currently, I pursued web certs to further my web dev appetite. I am excited to be learning VUE JS. and all it has to offer with regard to Two-way Databinding, and the Virtual Dom. I begin my first project, March 8th.
Virtual Qualifications and Zoom
I have had the opportunity to design, develop and project manage virtually which has been a huge learning experience and plus. Working Remotely is a new skill in itself. Having these experiences plus a reliable workstation with a fast computer, microphone and speakers, reliable internet and power is going to be the gateway to exciting projects in my opinion.
Being well rounded.. makes me Unique & Experienced
I have working knowledge in the following: Wix, Wordpress, Bootstrap, hand coded HTML, Sass or Vanilla JS, Design Applications (for pulling assets, etc): Sketch, Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Admin Hosting and DB Experience. In my projects I have used: Shopify, Big Cartel, Tockify, including implementing various API's from Facebook, as well as Userway for Accessibility, and CovergePay for Secure Checkout. Please email me for more samples, if needed.
My journey continues...
Working under tight deadlines, and with experience remotely and in person production, I have the ability to handle multiple projects at the same time while producing high quality of work with a strong focus on detail. I thrive in a team enviornment, yet I have the experience to think out of the box and and get the job done independently.
