From the ashes of my old life, I am reborn! I have the great privilege to be able to return to school full time to pursue my dream of earning a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Visual Arts: Game Art Concentration!Along the way I will also pick up an Associate of Applied Science Degree, also in Game Art. Woohoo!

I am an Independent Consultant serving a diverse array of B2B and B2C industries responsible for servicing the largest and most industry-critical systems in the world.

Advised the founding team as first a contractor on initial design plan for long term product strategy, and then as a full time employee where I created the visual design language used in their node-based UI. I then built (and re-built) the front end UI using React/Typescript, advised on team growth strategies, and also helped to design complex concepts around historical data accessibility that could then be interpreted in a high-stakes environment (physical) and provide data visualization around trends over time unique to that industrial environment.

Assisted with various design and bug fixes as part of what eventually resulted in the acquisition of Pushbot/Catalytic into Pager Duty.

I co-founded a creative community for artists, currently in Open Beta. I Designed & Built the front-end in React/Typescript using Apollo (GraphQL), connecting to an Elixir back-end. All project planning, design, video editing, and front-end implementation was done by me, with my co-founder and partner handling the back-end & devOps.

I built a scaleable, modular React front end application for the Dragos Platform based on the company's initial prototype. I then hired a team of 4 FE Devs to help maintain and grow the product. I also designed and built a React component Design System, using a token-based system so it can be platform agnostic and serve the companies growing companion app library. I currently serve as the Lead UI/UX Designer and provide Product and Architectural support for new feature development.

I helped build the core Pushbot application from rough prototype to a robust proof of concept that contributed to securing Catalytic's Series A funding. I also helped hire engineering talent for the front-end team, and greatly contributed to the organizational management of projects to help the teams stay on task during sprints.

Built several new features including a Mailchimp-like email builder, a robust Dashboard with custom data visualization in D3js, as well as several major UI & UX improvements to the ticketing admin. I also designed and built the marketing website.

Built an admin to interface with a complex API to give internal teams and customers insight and control over the product data. Assisted in building the customer-facing app in ReactJS from Backbone.

Built complex scripts to assist in delivering advertising to any website on the internet as fast and with as little footprint as possible. Served on millions of websites.

Freelance Illustration for individuals or businesses. I have mostly done work for amateur writers, and RPG enthusiasts.

Helping to build a better way to build websites for millions of everyday people. :)

I work with talented Python programmers and help make the websites they build look as awesome as they work on the inside.

Co-founded this little company that's determined to create a better way to build websites for everyday people.

I consulted with clients and was the liaison between design and programming to ensure the designs were both feasible and were implemented pixel-perfectly.
