Experience
- Popularium (Development)https://popularium.com
I work at Popularium as a front-end developer, UX designer, and acquisitions editor. I developed the front-end of the site with Django, HTML/CSS, SASS, Foundation, Git, Vagrant, Gulp, jQuery, and JavaScript. I also created the wireframes or designs for many of the UX flows and features.
- Waldorf Astoria Unforgettable Stories (Development)http://waldorfastoria3.hilton.com/rs/unforgettable-stories/?cid=OM,WA,UnforgettableStories,Aux,ReadNow
I developed this project for Waldorf Astoria/Hilton via Reconstrukt. It uses HTML/CSS, Skrollr, jQuery, and JavaScript.
- CrowdRise (Development)https://www.crowdrise.com/
I worked here for 3 years, on most of the pages and features of the site, including setting up the front-end architecture that the site still depends on. It wasn't responsive when I got there, so that was my biggest priority. I used Foundation, Gulp, Sass, HTML/CSS, PHP, CodeIgniter, and Git/SVN.
- Gigmor (Development)
I converted this company's old, bloated codebase into a leaner, meaner one. Made it responsive and more efficient using PHP, Laravel, Blade, Bootstrap and HTML/CSS/jQuery/JavaScript.
- Case Partners (Development)http://www.casepartners.com
I designed and implemented this site in WordPress, HTML/CSS, and jQuery.
