As a Web Developer II at Sesame Communications, I build and manage custom websites for dental, orthodontic, and pediatric clients. I also work as a freelance developer, designing and building custom websites for a wide range of clients. With over 13 years of experience in front-end web development, I specialize in HTML, CSS/SCSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, React.js, Next.js, Hydrogen (Shopify), WordPress, Material UI, Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS, Node.js, GitHub/GitLab and PHP. I have built hundreds of custom-designed websites, featuring advanced animations and interactivity.I work closely with producers, designers and other team members to find practical solutions for completing the new websites. I also built and manage the latest corporate website for Sesame Communications, using a custom WordPress theme, migrating existing content and plugins, and integrating various custom forms and plugins. I love when form and function perfectly meet, and I take pride in my work and always look for improvements in the code, the design, and the overall user experience.

  Custom websites. Built hundreds of fully custom-designed dental, orthodontic and pediatric websites, often featuring unique and custom animations and interactivity. Worked closely with producers, designers and other team members to find practical solutions for completing the premium websites on a two to three day timeframe.Corporate Website. Built and managed the latest corporate website. Custom Wordpress theme built from the ground up. Migrated existing blog content, page content and custom plugins from existing design. Included integration for many custom plugins used throughout the site. Website features various custom Marketo forms integrated for tracking sales leads and plugins for live webinars and easily accessible documents, files and videos.Gulp.js Tools. Created Gulp.js programs for converting raw images and for helping the build development process. The Gulp image converter program watches and converts uncompressed images to WebP, JPG and PNG images according to settings. The task can process different groups or individual photos with optimal compression settings. The Gulp build development helper program watches SCSS to compile, adds browser prefixes, concatenates, minifies/beautifies and live-reloads. This program helps organize JS scripts required for the project, concatenates and minifies and live-reloads. The program also watches PHP files for changes for live-reloading. Custom Templating. Developed a build template with versatile and refined development assets that are specifically designed for creating Sesame’s premium, fully custom website designs. The assets reduce build time by hours while improving animations and scaling ability for elements and design features. It is also designed to increase the overall page speed and accessibility.
