What I'm looking for
I'm a Toronto-based Front-End Developer with 5+ years building responsive, accessible, and user-centred websites and applications using React, JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5 and CSS3. I have delivered WCAG 2.1 (Level AA) compliant sites, integrated RESTful APIs, and contributed to projects at organizations including the Canadian Cancer Society and Bank of Montreal.
I collaborate with cross-functional teams in Agile/Scrum environments, use utility-first CSS (Tailwind), advanced Git workflows, and animation tools like GSAP to create performant, reusable components.
