At WeMystic / Impacting Group, I handled design and frontend work across publishing websites and landing pages, from concept through launch. I also maintained the Shopify store, building theme pages and configuring metafields while troubleshooting themes, apps, and integrations.

As a freelance UI/UX Designer / Frontend Developer, I redesigned ScaleGrid’s platform, building its design system from scratch and redesigning its components. I’ve also worked on web tools, admin panels, SaaS products, and WordPress and Shopify projects.

Earlier, at Adclick, I worked across digital design and frontend implementation for landing pages, banner ads, email newsletters, and WordPress builds. My work spans design and development, from HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Liquid to complete product experiences.
