Full Web Application (via Toptal)

I worked with a team, including a designer and back-end developer to create a web application for our client. Work included creating pixel-perfect implementations of high-fidelity designs, working with a beta testing team to change and improve the product, and working on a Python/Django back end for full application functionality.

The application has clients upload spreadsheets, processes the data, algorithmically matches the client data to standardized data, and allows the client to confirm the matches. Functionally, this was created using Dropzone.js and AngularJS, as well as extensive use of JavaScript, CSS, LESS, and HTML.

I was also responsible for modernizing the existing code base, including implementing best practices like DRY as well as migrating to ES2020 by switching to WebPack and Babel.

Once data has been processed, the clients are given access to dashboards, which include graphs made dynamically with CSS and HTML as well as Highcharts.

Dashboards for ExxonMobil

I created pixel-perfect implementations of high-fidelity designs. Where no high-fidelity designs existed, I designed and implemented pages based on wireframe diagrams and user feedback. Additionally, I maintained and upgraded legacy applications for the company and advised on the functionality needed to improve and create new internal dashboards.

My work was completed primarily using Angular, AngularJS, JavaScript, CSS, SCSS, and HTML.

App for Retail Fashion Network

I worked with UI/UX designers and created pixel-perfect application pages based on their high-fidelity designs. I implemented complex animations and transitions to produce a seamless user experience as expected by high-end fashion shoppers. I also helped design REST API based on front-end needs for implementation by a back-end engineer.

My work was completed primarily using React, Redux, JavaScript, CSS, SCSS, and HTML.

SmartPedals

I designed and prototyped a locking mechanism for a bicycle sharing system, using embedded IoT programming.
