Complete résumé

Frontend systems built for users, editors, and production.

At the University of Arizona, I build admissions and recruitment experiences and Drupal-connected component systems. The work spans Drupal Single Directory Components, Storybook, React, Next.js, historical Gatsby work, and TypeScript, with accessibility, responsive behavior, performance, and editor workflows treated as delivery requirements.
