Employment
Experience
- Amberton HOA Websitehttp://www.ambertonhoa.com
I built a completely custom WordPress website with a members-only area, allowing homeowners to manage accounts on the site and access private pages without having to use the WordPress back end. A profile editor, a user directory, and an announcement blog were developed using the WP API and React. The custom theme also included specialized Gutenberg blocks specifically developed for the website.
- Portfolio Websitehttp://www.algraphicdesign.com
I developed a SPA portfolio website for a graphic designer with Angular and Fullpage.js Angular component. A custom portfolio component was implemented to display portfolio pieces pulled from a WordPress installation via the WP REST API. I used Angular animations as well as the Angular Router to target specific portfolio pieces from the URL.
- Trinity Church Websitehttp://trinityrbc.org
I built a custom theme from PDF mockups provided by a graphic designer. Included a custom Gutenberg block and widget. Implemented a responsive design for site to work well across all screen sizes.
