At Phase2 I implement front end design systems at a very large scale for some of the largest Drupal sites in the world. Advocating for reusable components to help bring disparate designs into unison across multiple pages, sections, and even whole sites of a platform is a mission of mine, resulting in major savings to the implementation stage of our projects. Additionally, I've introduced and maintained a wide array of Node.js tooling for our teams.- Implemented the front end for MAC Cosmetics and Estee Lauder; sites in 136 countries.- Introduced and maintain internal Gulp/Grunt front end build tools- Created Yeoman generator used to scaffold out new sites- Championed usage of Pattern Lab for projects and dramatically improved our process doing so. I presented this at DrupalCon 2014 LA.

Highly experienced front end web developer specializing in responsive & mobile theme development for Drupal & Wordpress.

Taking the initial design from Photoshop mockup to rock solid HTML, browser-aware flexible CSS, and powerful jQuery themes most often integrated into Drupal is my specialty. Aware of emerging trends, CSS3 and HTML5 techniques are implemented in forward thinking ways while also providing alternate means to similar experiences in less-able browsers. Most work done here is White Label, so I'm not able to share my work publicly, however my client list & work can be shared privately; please ask if interested!

Specializing in Drupal theming & configuration, I can take any mockup and convert it into not only a pixel perfect theme across multiple browsers, but a functioning Drupal site, complete with setup & configuration. I'm also able to discuss your vision and turn it into a design that fits your organizations style while keeping a clean, sleek feel that will be very useable for people experiencing your site.

I started this business with a partner and have built it from the ground up.All major aspects of the business were handled by me personally:Web Design, Client Acquisition and Negotiation of terms, Project Management, Branding, Marketing & Social Media, SEO, & even Accounting.We specialized in creating web sites using Content Management Systems (Drupal,WordPress, & SlideshowPro). My speciality is handling all theming of the site, using CSS, HTML, JavaScript (jQuery), PHP & MySQL, but am very adept at the development side of things.All work is done adhering to Web Standards with attention paid to many different browsers.Our most prominent client is the United Nations, which we helped by redesigning the Stand Against Poverty site (http://standagainstpoverty.org) so that it could count participants across the world during it's weekend event.The 174 million participants the site counted helped them gain a Guinness World Record.

I handled everything web related for this online web publishing company: maintenance of their existing site built on ExpressionEngine, expansions of the site with specific local sections for several cities, several micro-sites for conferences, & all social media management. In addition, I moved their existing email servers to a more advanced Google Apps setup that involved email, shared docs & calendaring, a wiki, and an internal IM system.All technical support for the roughly dozen Mac users of the company was also handled by me, and I was able to suggest several changes to user's workflow that resulted in higher efficiency working together in disparate remote environments.

Fixed all sorts of problems on individual computers, business wide networks, and servers for a multitude of companies in a great technical consulting shop where the next youngest person was a decade older than me.
