I'm a frontend developer based in Chicagoland with a background in animation. My journey into web development started when I built a portfolio site for my animated projects. That one project turned into a passion for crafting intuitive, accessible, and well-structured web experiences.
In 2021, I built an ecommerce platform, Candy Fluffs, for my sister's artwork, focusing on performance, scalability, and maintainable code. Now, I work at an ecommerce company improving code quality, user experience, and site performance—from refining accessibility to optimizing page load times.
