Front-end Developer / Designer
I am a Front-end developer with a background in design. I am a firm believer in user centered design and the persona lifecycle. I like to approach development with a component driven methodology.
I write clean code that is functional, scalable and orthogonal. I like to build products with a focus on business goals and create pixel perfect web apps with intuitive, simple user experiences.
Tools I use
Development: React/Redux/Javascript, HTML5, CSS3/styled-components, Node, Git, React Testing Library/Jest.
UX: Design Systems, User Centered Design, Persona Lifecycles, Google X Prototype Thinking
Design: Figma, Sketch, Invision DSM, Abstract, Storybook
Project Management: Agile, Jira, Asana, Scrum
