Resume

Skills and tools

I’ve been crafting websites from scratch with HTML and CSS since 1997, later adopting PHP to generate the markup and SASS for the stylesheets. I’ve been using WordPress as my CMS of choice since version 1.5, building custom themes and plug-ins. I make a point of putting performance, usability and sustainability at the forefront. I’m well versed in graphic tools such as Figma, Sketch and DTP software like Adobe InDesign.

I can set up, run and maintain local and remote web servers in Apache, PHP, MySQL either through a GUI or SSH. I recently moved to static site generators with or without an headless CMS, especially digging Jekyll with its Liquid template language and Netlify for deployment and production builds. I use git as a versioning system, with Github as my preferred service.
