What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can leverage my web development skills to drive impactful projects and contribute to a dynamic team.

I am a dedicated Web Developer with over three years of experience in creating client-facing, production-ready websites for nonprofits and small businesses. My expertise lies in languages such as TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, complemented by hands-on experience with frameworks like React and Ruby on Rails. I take pride in my ability to manage full project lifecycles, from initial scoping to launch, ensuring that each project meets the highest standards of quality and performance.

Throughout my career, I have successfully built and launched responsive, SEO-optimized websites, integrating best practices in mobile-first design and user experience. My recent freelance work includes developing a new small business site focused on clean navigation and brand consistency. Additionally, my volunteer work with Catchafire has allowed me to contribute to over 15,000 nonprofit websites, enhancing their accessibility and content clarity. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create impactful digital experiences.
