Daniel McQuillen
@danielmcquillen
I build web and desktop applications, with an emphasis on simple and clean user interfaces, with a special focus on building science and e-Learning.
What I'm looking for
I've built web and desktop applications for the scientific community through McQuillen Interactive since 2002, including building simulation tools for Lawrence Berkeley National Labs.
For LBNL, I've developed or contributed to IGSDB, Checkertool, BETTER, COMFEN, AERCalc, SensorSuitcase, SEED, and PlantInsight; IGSDB and Checkertool remain ongoing projects.
I was the sole web application developer for Science Communication Labs' NIGMS-funded iBiology Courses, creating an application that became the open-source KinesinLMS. I handle both design and coding, with a focus on user experience, practical solutions, and helping organisations use technology to become more sustainable.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
I create rich web and desktop applications. I have a strong focus on user experience and practical, simple solutions to user needs.
I’ve worked with a number of groups to create simple and effective applications, often handling both the design and user interface as well as writing the code. That can be helpful for budget-constrained projects that can’t afford a larger team of designers and coders
