Personal Statement
With over 10 years of experience in creative services, 7+ of those years have been in the ecommerce sector with hands-on work for major clients in the industry, specializing in the implementation of user interface and experience for the front end development and back end support of multiple platforms.
I create elegant and engaging interfaces semantically coded by being user-centered, utilizing cutting edge technology and following the latest web standards to craft clean and dynamic experiences that are cross-browser compatible. I migrated a 20+ years established business from an unsupported system to a SaaS platform with a custom in-house ERP system and API connector.
