whatIDo

I’m a web developer & designer who combines an aesthetic sensibility with a love for bringing designs to life with code. My current toolset includes HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, Git + GitHub, Webpack, Heroku, & Adobe Creative Cloud. I am an avid learner and continually grow my skills.

howIGotHere

I’ve been designing and constructing things for as long as I can remember. After completing my degree in apparel & textile design, I taught myself graphic design which led to a 10+ year career in publishing and print. Never would I have imagined that one day I’d be designing with code.

whyILoveIt

Expanding on my design knowledge by learning to create for the web has been an exciting journey. Design and development are both about solving problems. I love the blend of the technical and the creative, and I’m inspired by the process of finding problems and creating solutions for them.

It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.

aboutThisSite

I designed and coded this site from scratch using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, (some) Bootstrap, SVG, Handlebars, Webpack, Node.js, Git/GitHub, Heroku, Sublime Text, Atom, and Adobe Creative Cloud. I use it as an experimental space to test and try things so it’s always a work in progress and may change from time to time. The fonts are Open Sans, Oswald, Roboto Slab, and Droid Serif Italic.
