Projects

JSBX

NodeJS - HTML - CSS - JavaScript - Code Mirror

JSBX is an HTML/CSS/JavaScript sandbox tool that I created for quickly prototyping and testing code in the browser. I use it nearly every day to test and debug bits of code prior to incorporating functionality into my production work.

Segmented Video Player

NodeJS - HTML - CSS - JavaScript

The Segmented Video Player is a tool for playing vertical or ultra-wide (horizontal) video on a standard 16:9 monitor. The player splits vertical video or ultra-wide video into a specified number of 'segments' and allows you to quickly switch between them on the fly, while the video is playing.

Text Diff

NodeJS - HTML - CSS - JavaScript

The Text Diff tool is a simple tool that takes 2 different text strings and highlights the differences between them. There are several different methods for testing and displaying differences using the drop down at the top-right.

Text Replacer

NodeJS - HTML - CSS - JavaScript

The Text Replacer tool is a simple tool for replacing one or more values in a provided text string.

About

I studied digital graphic design at Cal State Northridge (CSUN). In school I learned core design principles, industry standard Adobe applications as well as HTML, CSS and Wordpress.

Around the same time I started getting involved in video game development, learning programming with a game engine called Game Maker. Through my experience in game development, I learned how programming could be combined with my background in art & design to create fun, and unique, interactive experiences.

After graduating, I landed a job as an interactive designer at Tremor Video, where I initially spent my time designing and building interactive web ads for a host of well known companies.

Over the next few years at Tremor Video I became increasingly involved on the development side, with my focus shifting from designing and building web ads to building the underlying ad formats, along with reusable components and features. This work eventually culminated with me pivoting from my interactive design role to a full fledged web development role.

From that point forward my positions have continued to be more on the development side, although I have unofficially served as both designer + developer on numerous projects throughout my career.
