I’m a front-end developer with a passion for UX design.
My past life of 10+ years in HR has built a foundation in designing materials such as handbook website, benefits websites and collateral, applications, applicant portals, policies and more, that are simple, clean and easy to read for the best user experience.

It’s not often you find a developer with business acumen, strong communication skills and HR experience.
