A little bit about myself.
I’m a web developer and designer with a focus on UX/UI design and an appreciation for aesthetics, who’s passionate about innovative web technologies, improving usability and creatively exploring solutions through intuitive design and human-centered development.
As a design-oriented thinker with an analytical background and a curious creative drive, I’m continually expanding my skill set in web design for efficient interfaces, front-end development, and other software programming, dev and design tools. With a background in quality I hope to enhance user experience, helping to bridge the gap between technology and humans.

My Values
Authenticity & Creativity: Adding originality to inspired concepts is well worth the effort. Sharing one’s ideas with the greater community spreads inspiration and may offer improvement to an existing theory, idea, or meme. This spirit of collaboration contributes in ways we may not have anticipated.
Empathy & Compassion: Listen patiently to others to understand their perspective, their needs, wants and desires. This understanding and walking in their shoes offers insight and positions one to better advocate for the end user, ideating potential solutions that are intuitive and easy to use.
Aesthetics & Imagination: Form and function matter. Tinker with different avenues of creative expression, seek inspiration, find beauty and healing, either in nature, online, within your tribe or within yourself and have courage to follow what draws you in. Embrace adventure and exploration.
Curiosity & Learning: Study what supports your curiosity or creative process and growth. Balance your goals, dreams, aspirations and work with healthy habits, mental and physical well being. Be adaptable and find your way through challenges. Don’t be afraid to ask for guidance when you need to.
