I am a front-end web developer with a diverse skillset and a passion for crafting scalable and usable experiences. Always eager to learn, work effectively in a team, and lead. Designer, photographer, and foreign music enthusiast.
Consultant specializing in dynamic CMS-powered websites as well as custom web app solutions for clients. Clients are often unfamiliar with the development process/technical terms and rely on clear explanations to empower them to make decisions. • Develop websites with designs informed by Figma files - prototype and design independently, or collaborate with designer and client throughout the process to ensure technical feasibility. • Act as product manager for custom solutions by identifying pain points, scoping and tasking out projects, prioritizing work, and ensuring a clear UX for end-users. • Improve client processes by developing and maintaining custom full-stack web app solutions that increase workflow efficiency for clients - write DB schema, integrate third-party APIs, and write solutions in Remix.run or Next.js. • Assess various client needs regarding services, plugins, packages, and other third party solutions - document recommendations and provide necessary digital transformation/transition plans. • Perform technical audits for client websites, solve immediate problems, and then implement process changes to ensure problems don’t reappear. (In one case, page size was reduced by an average of 5.8x, and processes developed resulted in a 300% reduction in server costs.)
Frontend developer of several bespoke web apps as well as supporting libraries for the Public Sector team. All projects support user-friendly interaction with the company's frontier AI models for various government stakeholders. • Architect frontend stack for Public Sector projects, including sourcing of open-source software given specific requirements, security vetting, and ability to operate within airgapped environments. Stack technologies include: TypeScript, TanStack Router, TanStack Query, Vite, PNPM monorepo, TailwindCSS, Vitest, Docker, and Fastify. • Streamline development on various project repos by creating a shareable ESLint configuration, as well as a TypeScript component library informed by a Figma design system - improve cross-team collaboration by deploying an internal Storybook instance. • Enable knowledge-sharing and understanding of frontend decisions and processes by writing and maintaining wiki documentation, detailed tickets, and inline documentation. • Plan and execute projects alongside backend engineers, DevSecOps engineers, product managers, and designers within Integrated Product Teams.
Developed frontend features using ReactJS, TypeScript, and Redux for V5 of Scuba's flagship web app - a no-code solution for querying, interpreting, and presenting data. • Enabled customers to smoothly transition between V4 and V5 of the app by writing code that resulted in feature parity by collaborating with internal stakeholders and referencing the V4 codebase and UI. • Extended third-party libraries such as React Select and Apache eCharts so that UI matched requests from product managers. • Contributed to the development of dark mode, with architecture geared towards enabling an app-wide reskinning system and the goal of allowing the company to pursue new business opportunities. • Spearheaded adoption of JSDocs as an inline documentation solution, enabling faster onboarding and more efficient knowledge sharing. • Implemented fault-tolerant solutions necessary to be able to input, manipulate, and view possibly schema-less data; wrote unit tests when intended results were achieved to ensure continual data accuracy with Jest.
Assisted in development of MVP for a social networking web app using Remix (full-stack React framework), and related technologies in the Remix Blues stack (TypeScript, TailwindCSS, Prisma, PostgreSQL). • Designed initial app wireframes based on requirements from co-founder and architected frontend of app, including the data store, reusable UI components, and app routes. • Ensured the app responded to user authentication, including conditional visibility of components and features based on user permissions. • Collaborated with backend developer to write schema and implement API endpoints that allowed usage of CRUD operations for various tables/data in the app.
