Web Developer & Designer
Highlights
Currently: UI/UX Developer @ Allianz Partners
Watchwords: Curiosity, precision, empathy, follow-through, autodidact
Coder who designs. Interested in work that takes advantage of my front-end, design, and UI/UX skillsets while providing opportunities to learn new languages and technologies, especially in back-end and full stack.
- For the last three years, I've worked on an e-commerce team for a global travel and event insurance company, directly contributing to reaching annual revenue goals (including stretch goals) for all three years consecutively
- I'm experienced working within teams as a sole development resource, communicating technical ideas in clear and approachable ways to non-technical colleagues and expanding team awareness of solid UI/UX principles
- I've worked on development teams to create internal use web applications that maximize workflow efficiency and boost revenue
- I champion the intelligent, responsible use of AI as a member of my organization's AI Committee and Innovation Council; soon, I'll be training colleagues on the compliant use of AI tooling in their day-to-day work
- A little trivia: I used to work in the film industry; I value good storytelling, attention to detail, and execution so elegant that it feels like art

Principles of Work
- Multitasking is a myth; I don't do it.
- Task switching is expensive; I avoid it.
- Learning and growing on the job is an essential feature of meaningful work.
- Due to the deskilling and environmental damage it causes, and because I want to own my competence rather than renting it, I use AI tools very discerningly.
- Intentional > fast
- Accessible and equitable > polished design (the thoughtful dev can have both)
