Responsible for developing user-facing credit tracking tools, supporting creative teams and our public facing WordPress website. Note-worthy projects:
Lead engineer and architect of Wild Earth’s tech initiatives. Managing web infrastructure in GCP and supporting Tech Ops and Production teams. Led a team of 3 engineers to build and scale a new customer account application built in React, GatsbyJs, NodeJs, and Typescript. Provided mentorship and guidance to less senior engineers through weekly code reviews, technical debt pay down sessions, and pair programming. Migrated monolith Express application to a microservice architecture built on Google Cloud Run with NodeJs, Typescript and backed by an API Gateway with Auth0, JWT authentication and integrated with Stripe Payments. Empowered content development teams to make edits and improvements to our website at will through custom Gutenberg Blocks built in React. Note-worthy projects:
As Web Engineer on Calbright's Technology team and working directly with Chief Technology Officer, I designed and developed the Student Portal (student facing application) responsible for improving user experience, streamlining the matriculation process and creating a centralized location for course progress, communications and student services. Additionally, I maintained, improved, and standardized web accessibility and best practices for both public and student facing applications to align with Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA-AAA standards. Note-worthy projects:
As Full Stack Developer on MindTouch Marketing, I spearhead all development projects, determining internal development best practices, deployment processes–I'm a fan of Bitbucket Pipelines–and of course, the development itself. In addition, I develop API integrations with multiple 3rd party services to sync data in multiple targets from a single event and develop custom data tracking solutions. Note-worthy projects:
Being a Front-end developer at MindTouch, I am primarily responsible for transforming Adobe PSD/XD files into functional, highly optimized and mobile-first user experiences. Using tools like Gulp and Rollup allowed for automated build processing for SASS, CSS prefixing, minification, ES6 javascript, and live reloading. Other responsibilities included cross-platform email development with MJML, developing front-end libraries for component reusability, performance improvements and maintainability heavily achieved by a weightless CSS approach and atomic BEM methodology.
Maintained, improved and measured SVV's WordPress site from top to bottom. Developing main marcom site from scratch while driving web traffic via blogging and promoting content through social channels. Google Analytics and FullStory provided insight into better understanding traffic quality and user experience while my custom developed WordPress theme made for rapid development of SVV's website.
Developed, maintained and optimized internal WordPress sites as well as external client sites. In addition to full scale websites, I designed and deployed landing page funnels with an emphasis on lead generation, leveraging build tools like Gulp and Rollup to automate development and performance workflows. To brag a bit more, I developed a custom OOP WordPress starter theme with ES6, SCSS, image optimization and live reload support, decreasing time to project completion.
Personalized meal and workout plans.

Community college, everyone's grace period before discovering what their lives are meant for. I'm no exception. West Valley gave me the opportunity to experience OOP with Java and build connections with like-minded individuals.
The gateway to all of my entrepreneurial endeavors which included designing and creating custom silk-screened clothing often times for extracurricular workshops like Student Body or Future Farmers of America (FFA).
Coaching Sarah into the mid-level engineer she is today has taught me invaluable skills for managing, teaching, and collaborating with other engineers.
Part of my first major project at Calbright–redesigning and developing the Student Portal–I had to communicate and collaborate with a handful of teams, including non-technical, technical, and executive. From the beginning, Laura provided me with the guidance and feedback I needed to prepare demos, strategize UX testing, and optimize the application usability to best meet the goals of our student body.
As a self-taught developer highly focused on improving my technical skillset, Ari has taught and encouraged me to focus on achieving personal goals. While unintentional, Ari's naturally bright personality coaxed me to break out of my natural introversion allowing me to communicate more effectively with my colleagues.
Travis gave me an opportunity to test the waters in the online marketing scene. A mentor and friend who not only supported my entrepreneurial endeavors but also taught me the importance of value, how to add value sustain value.
