Summary

I am a driven Web Developer with expertise in SEO optimization, marketing, social media, responsive design, HTML, CSS, WordPress, graphic design, and project management. I bring enthusiasm and diligence to any position that I am in. I started as a Junior Developer and worked my way up to the position of Lead Developer and Department Manager with my current employer. In my current position I implemented proper training protocols, a more organized system for delivering websites in a timely manner, a checklist to ensure consistent quality, and a a sense of community among my team. I am looking to better my skill set and grow in my career while also making a positive impact on the world and those around me.
