Having studied Computer Engineering, I wanted to move into an industry that would allow me to create meaningful and impactful products. This desire led me to web development and design, an industry with rapidly evolving technologies that reach millions of people.

A deep understanding of computers has allowed me to fluidly move into creating web sites and applications that are speedy and well designed. These kinds of products are what consumers look for and are a guaranteed way to generate more business.

My work ethic allows me to efficiently work to the necessary standards and quality that people look for. This also means that security and efficiency are at the forefront of my development process.

These qualities are what allow me to provide the best quality work.

• Zang

  

  This site was made entirely in React and NodeJS. Its purpose was to act as a modular frontend that would hook into any desired backend. The only requirement was having a matching JSON file that the site would then build itself from through a factory method.

  The design of this site was made to highlight each section in an intuitive way. The modularity of the framework allowed this to be accomplished seamlessly.

• Ronald Hermes, D.D.S

  

  The focus on this site was purely in it's design rather than extraneous function. The idea was to create a clean and elegant look to the entire site to better match the feel of the office. I am anticipating some changes to the content to that exists on the actual site but the look should remain consistent.

  The two forms that exist on the page POST to a custom PHP script that emails all the input values to the appropriate email address and style them accordingly.

• CSC Corporate Responsibility

  

  The Corporate Responsibility landing page is interesting due to the large amounts of animation that were added. I feel that these animations give the page its own personal style, a unique look that people won't easily forget. There is a large amount of content that is needed to be digested to understand the entire point of Corporate Responsibility so the work done on this page helps to draw and keep the users attention while helping them understand what it is that they are reading.

  This page also contains a large amount of analytics, tracking, and social shares for an optimum business experience in finding leads and generate customers.
