front end developer
I code. I find solutions. I take the mock-up and make it real.
What I do
Living in Portland, Oregon, I enjoy making beautiful designs into web sites. Taking the Photoshop or Illustrator files and bringing them to life with an appropriate mixture of clean XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript is what I do best. Mindful of web standards and accessibility, I code fast-loading web sites that are easily changeable in look and feel as well as easily accessible to those who may have difficulty navigating the web.
Finding solutions for the challenging, hard-to-build web site with the latest designs is what I enjoy most. My favorite professional moment happens when I open my text editor to bring a design to life. That is what keeps me in the business and what keeps me going.
Find me on twitter and linkedin. For a detailed résumé or a code sample, please feel free to contact me.

A sampling of projects I've worked on recently.
Dirty Snowflake Apparel
This website functions as an online brochure for retailers interested in selling the clothing. My role was to design the layout, hand code the HTML and CSS, along with implementing JavaScript solutions for interactivity.
Coast Cabins
Working as a subcontractor for The Interactive Dept. and with Pail Design, I built out the structure of this web site, using the design comps, and provided the client with hand-coded XHTML and CSS. I also communicated with the designer and the flash developer on aspects of the design as we fleshed out the structure of the site.
American Medical Aesthetics
Working with Pail Design and The Interactive Dept., my role in this project was to take all design comps and build out the XHTML and CSS structure. I interacted with the designer and flash developer to ensure that all elements met the client’s needs.
sadiemedley.com
Working with The Interactive Dept., my role in this project was to code the XHTML and CSS according to the mock-up created by the client. I also worked with the client to make sure the structure and features were cross-browser compatible, and I worked on the platforms her primary audience uses. In addition to this, I inserted a JavaScript lightbox to showcase the brand experience work.
Transportation Tracker
The Transportation Tracker is a web application designed for the Transportation Planning Department at Metro to track all federal funds used in the region for different projects.
My role in this project was to code all the HTML and CSS for the interface layout. I also interacted with the client to ensure the design met their needs. In addition, I worked with the development team to answer database functionality questions and to make certain that the interface functioned properly.
