EXPLORE MY
PORTFOLIO
Each project has helped me refine my skills and expand my knowledge of web and mobile development. A project typically takes 40 to 60 hours to complete. I put meticulous attention to detail into each project so that it is not only functional but also elegant. I hope to expand this page and continue to work on exciting new projects.

MY PROCESS
DESIGNING A WEBSITE
Uh oh here comes a lot of text...
Ever been to a website with so many extravagant design features that it makes it hard to use? I design UI features that make websites easy to use through simplifying layouts and using rich colors.
Before I write any code, I start by drawing out my ideas. Below are the wireframes I drew for the website you're reading right now. Look to see if anything is familiar!
These drawings allow me to do mobile-first design - a technique where you optimize first for mobile and then shift to websites, expanding the accessibility of the website.
I then build out these designs in code and deploy them to the web. My preferred framework for designing UI is tailwindcss, and my preferred JavaScript framework for the backend is Next.js. Tailwind and Next.js allow me to quickly develop websites with uniform designs and efficient code.
After I've finished the main design of the website, I focus on the final touches that make my websites stand out. This step includes bug fixes, small design tweaks, speed, and search optimization.
RESULTS THAT SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES
My design philosophy is that good design should lead to functional websites that are quick and accessible. My results show that this is the right approach.
