my passion

is creating compelling user experiences using a well-rounded balance of visual and technical skills. I love creating products that are not only attractive but meaningful and easy to use.

past experience

Most of my work has been in client-side communications roles with small socially innovative organizations where I created and maintained new web properties.

Sometimes I worked with a distributed development team, which I really enjoyed, but mostly I was the only person responsible for the organizations' websites, working directly with program teams. In each position I was able to significantly increase user satisfaction and engagement with the organizations' brand.

In the past year I have updated my skills in CSS3 and HTML5 as well as in design, UX and front-end development best practices. I am beginning to learn WordPress and Javascript and plan to keep expanding my technical skills as well as my portfolio.

future opportunities

I am now eager to join a team developing high quality web products where I can contribute to the company's success in the capacity of user experience, design, front-end development or a combination of those areas.

I am open to various work scenarios including projects, part-time, or full-time positions. I am especially interested in distributed teams but I am open to working onsite in Toronto as well.
