As a front-end developer and support specialist, I debug and enhance Shopify themes, adding new features and fixing bugs to improve the user experience. I also resolve merchant issues via email, providing technical support and stylistic customizations, while occasionally contributing to the theme’s GitHub repository. Through this, I have gained extensive knowledge of the Shopify platform, its APIs, and the Liquid templating language, in addition to writing technical documentation for theme features.

As a primary front-end web developer for a marketing agency, I was responsible for designing and developing websites for local small businesses. I created online marketing solutions for clients using various platforms like WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace, and also gained insights into marketing techniques essential for driving business success.

As a front-end web developer, I created stylistic customizations and mobile-ready solutions for numerous client websites using HTML, CSS, and Responsive Web Design.

As a primary web developer, I designed and developed custom websites from static designs using WordPress, and maintained existing WooCommerce e-commerce sites.
