Experience
Customizable Web Templates Adapted for Various Type of Clients | Looka
Although this project was a pleasure to work on, it was a challenging and creatively consuming process. I have created over 30 templates in HTML and SCSS and implemented them in Duda. The adaptation segment was where the magic happened, and choosing the right templates adaptable for the clients, each with individual needs, was the main goal to be completed successfully.
WordPress Website for Marketing Automation Company | JTF Marketing
https://www.jtfmarketing.co/WordPress Website for a Ticket Marketplace
https://gotstubs.com/Working on gotStubs meant focusing on creating a website that will deliver an excellent user experience. At the same time, it is also loved by Google bots and evaluated and ranked high on the Google search engine page results. The project was started from scratch.
GotStubs' site is now a fast and functional website with a speed score of 100/100 on desktop and 96/100 on mobile devices. It is fully SEO-optimized and filled out with SEO content that targets the relevant transactional keywords. In addition, the website is now a reseller of tickets on the territory of the whole USA, in comparison to being centered only locally in the Chicago area when they approached us.
Website for a Danish Startup | Valuer
https://valuer.ai/I also worked on http://jointhehunt.co/, which is a website for agents who scout startups, where I worked on the front end for all the screens on the dashboard.
I was in direct communication with the PO, the project designer, and the team of developers; we used Agile methodology to facilitate the process of task organization.
