Nen Creative – I work as a designer and developer contractor on websites and branding for startups.

At Nen, I design low and high fidelity UI/UX wireframes for web with Figma. I implement the designs through Webflow, specializing in features requiring custom code. Acting both as designer and developer, I am able to ensure responsive design choices through iterative testing. I also translate engineering requirements for clients with expanded technical needs and feature requests.

Techweek Calendar Page

A16Z Tech week

I developed custom code features in the a16z’s Tech Week site. Specifically, I implemented a solution for the events calendar purely in webflow. Drawing data from an API, I created a script that filters events, using a wide variety of metrics and populates the calendar in a responsive way. Avoiding external services like Zapier allowed me to flexibly adapt to asks for new features and save on a subscription cost. This role also involved QA testing, and being on call to catch bugs as the site peaked at over 300,000 concurrent users

Restate Landing Page

RESTATE.DEV

Restate is a startup working on creating backend infrastructure for distributed systems. During Restate’s recent rebrand, I acted as a UI/UX designer and developer. I was brought on after the branding process was largely finished, creating mockups based on a loose design system. I then implemented those mockups in webflow, building out the site.

During this project my secondary, but just as important role, was serving as a translator between the client and Nen for the client’s technical needs. Along with addressing technical questions, I also created a series of diagrams and animations illustrating the product’s technical capabilities. I created motion graphics for technical diagrams with Adobe After Effects and Lottie animations which I then implemented in the site tying progression to scroll behavior.
