Hi, I'm Dan!
I'm a web developer and UX designer specializing in React development.
Front-end Development
I specialize in front end development using the React library as a framework for my designs, and I've recently started implementing Gatsby in my projects to solve the SEO complications that arrise from standard single page apps made in React.
While I'm not too familiar with back end programming, I'm proficient in interfacing with services like Firebase and Gatsby cloud to manage and secure data in my projects.
Although I typically use React and SCSS to create my projects, I have a strong understanding of the base syntax of HTML, CSS, and Javascript

UX Design
My interest in web development started through the lense of UX design while taking classes at General Assembly. Since then, I've learned that I'm more interested in the programming side of development, but I haven't lost sight of considering the end user in every decision I make while programming.

Graphic Design
I'm not a graphic designer by trade -- you could say it's not my passion -- but I've taken the time to learn image editing and the basics of vector drawing in the Adobe Creative Suite since these skills are often so necessary for working on solo projects in web development.
