Projects

Thimble is build on a PHP framework, primarily PHP, javascript, HTML5/Sass, and wordpress. Most of what is seen on the site is either built by me or I have helped my team build. The modular design system ultimately led to faster page design and production as well as leading to a faster page load speed as well as an increase in web core vitals.

This is a site built on GraphQl, Netlify, Contentful, and React.js. Much of this site was built by me, including alot of the modules, interactions, transitons, and navigation. This has been the largest and most difficult site to build. Primarily because of being confined to a CMS and making sure the CMS, the front end and the backend were all easy to use for non-technical users.

This is a shopify store built on the shopify platform. Many of my primary duties was creating the clients visualizations. Often times creating cart discunts, updating the item page to show specific deals and implementing changes based on analytics.

Built on PHP, Javascript, and using Myron's own CMS system to update the site on it's multitude of pages.

Built on React Redux and React Native, as well as using various API's such as Google Maps, Indeed, Twilio, and Facebook authentication, I designed a project where users can search for front end positions in the region they choose. The jobs are then shows in a deck format where users can swipe left and right. If swiping right, those jobs are then rendered in the review jobs area where users are shown a more zoomed in map and are given the option to apply.

Using the latest UI trends, I've designed and developed this version of the SBLM page which caters to SBLM photography. Implementing a more descriptive landing page, using more white space on the work page, and let the photography speak for itself

Developed the current SBLM site from the ground up. Using a various of front end libraries, I was able to create an insightful and easy to use site for SBLM and it's clients. This project showed me the difficulties on deploying a website and that once something is deployed, constant updating, testing, and making progress through analysis is needed.

Developed and designed a personal blog site for influencer Anna Maria. Built on Wordpress, using custom themes, and design influences, this was an amazing project to work on. Working with someone so busy and being able to create something from scratch, when it comes to design, development, and deployment, this was a really fun project to work on.

An interactive solar system designed for kids primarily. Showing a minimalistic approach for children to better have a feel for outer space. Using Parallax, HTML, CSS, JQeuery, and Javascript.

Using React, Passport, AJAX, HTML, and CSS, users are able to login/signup to access their local weather and an assortment of daily news. Using the OpenWeather API, users can input any five-digit zip code and the city, current temperature in fahrenheit, and the low/hi of the day is displayed. Once rendered users can add that zip code to an array of saved zips where they can alternate on what city they want to see. As for the News section, the user is automatically shown the top five stories from the NYTimes, with clickable links. There is a side bar with other topics such as world, national, sports, and business, where users can alternate on what news they would like to see. Also when when users have inputed their email, using the MailGun API, an email will be sent that directs you to the site
