Short Summary:I am a creative graphic designer, web designer, and front-end web developer. I feel challenged to develop problem-solving solutions with an aesthetic design. I have experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP, as well as the Adobe Creative Cloud suite. I can work alone or as part of a collaborative team. I am able to multi-task to ensure projects are completed successfully at deadlines.==========Long Summary:Long before mobile technologies and web applications became the standards, I found myself interested with graphic design and the web. I built my first static website on Geocities as I learned HTML back in 1996. Since that time, it has been my dream to help build the technology of the future. From typography and layout to HTML and PHP, I enjoy the creative aspects of design to the tiny details brought to existence by the code.The first dynamic website that I built was a membership site for a video game guild complete with multi-level forums. I did not use any existing APIs or web app software as the site was completely custom coded and designed. From there, I went on to rebuild and redesign a custom social media network for kids under the age of 13 that was COPPA compliant.I am a motivated self-starter who is constantly learning. When I am not spending time with my family, designing, or coding, I can be found learning something new. With training in online content creation, I can be a valuable asset to any team.==========Specialties: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, graphic design, layout, web design, Adobe Creative Suite/Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign), PHP, social media, Windows, Mac OSX, Microsoft Office, brand guidelines
