Skills
Experience
- Application Developer · Facepay05-15-2020 – 08-18-2020
I wrote and refactored JavaScript functions in our app's admin controls, which oversee 100+ business owner accounts. I tested the dashboard to check that every feature was functioning correctly, and boosted user satisfaction by updating our clients' profiles with HTML source code.
- UI Designer · Ping!02-08-2021 – 05-20-2021
I designed the app's entire visual interface after discussions with the Founder on product requirements. I also worked with the Lead Developer to translate my final mockups into code.
- Content Writer · JobGet04-01-2020 – 04-09-2021
I bounced ideas off of our leadership team, so they could assign me topics to write. Before sending them in for publication, I researched, wrote, and proofread my articles. To boost our site traffic, I promoted my writing across various social media channels.
- Business Consultant · Probono Consulting05-01-2020 – 08-01-2020
As part of a consultancy team, I helped a fitness business maintain profitability during COVID-19. Together, we analyzed and advised our client on how to improve his business structure and workflow. I created email marketing templates and collaborated with our project manager to create a PowerPoint addressing ways to optimize the business' site performance.
