A portfolio website I created for Wendy Kauderer, an extremely talented and gifted artist.

She is all about her art so my design centered around accentuating the entirety of all her pieces, bringing them front and center. You’ll notice on each piece’s individual page, the piece bleeds it’s colors onto the background, further improving the viewer’s immersion.

A stunning e-commerce site for an apparel business built with Hugo and Snipcart’s fantastic developer-first tools, the sykstem delivers on it’s speed and quality.

The complimentary newsletter app to the sykstem’s e-commerce site. This was my first foray into the backend side of programming. I realized that it was a whole other world where the DOM was not available, so I had to learn to think differently.

This public journal — as the name describes — is for the public.

Anyone can hop on without having to create an account and make an entry straight away. Or you can go the “normal” route and create your own account. You can create and comment on entries “anonymously” if you please with the option to upgrading to a typical account setup later.

Entries are discarded after a short period of time, making this journal ephemeral in nature.

Taking inspiration from his studio design, I felt the need to give my dad’s website a complete makeover. At the time, I did not have any knowledge of javascript so I experimented with css to see if I could do some of the things that javascript was able to do.

In return, the site became usable all without javascript enabled in the browser (though without lazysizes.js). Maybe someone prefers not to have javascript turned on, especially for static sites. Here’s to those who make that choice.

And last but not least, this very website!

My site used to be built on a theme by HTML5UP called “Hugo Story”, but in order to fit in my new portfolio, I decided I would update it to match my true passion. There is now less importance to my face and more importance to the work accomplished.
