Capstone Project
Skilled in building out the framework of a website in HTML, designing with CSS and implementing functionality with JavaScript, all structured together in a framework like React. Clearly communicated code and UX working together is essential when building a beautiful, working website.
Utilizing back-end technology such as Rails, Ruby on Rails, React on Rails, Active Record, and PostgreSQL is essential for delivering dynamic content to the front-end of an application. I prioritize RESTful API structure so the back-end code easily accessible and communicated clearly.
Designing custom graphics, images, or elements are often necessary to elevate an application to the next level. I use programs like Canva, Microsoft Publisher, and Paint.NET to create and edit custom print and digital designs. I also have experience designing WYSIWYG websites using Wix and Squarespace.
I’ve always loved learning…
So it’s little surprise that I’ve ended up in an industry where the learning never ends. Before becoming a web developer, I worked for an EdTech company that focused on preparing students for standardized exams. We encouraged our students to lean into the WHY of learning, not just the how.
A move to San Diego gave me the opportunity to attend the (appropriately named) LEARN Academy where my world of learning has been expanded. Becoming a Full Stack Web Developer has allowed me to open the hood of the digital world we live in and see the engine inside - and it’s fascinating. I’d love to learn about your ideas, your projects, and how we can work together to make them a reality.
