Creative. Determined. Passionate.
I have been linked to web design since early 2000s, back when web sites were constructed on a table-type layout and most creaters collaborated in either the graphics or the development. Today, many are transitioning over to UX/UI to involve users and focus on the user experience. Including me!
Most of my professional background has been in project- and business management and quality assurance. Creating high quality and cutting-edge web sites with best practices in accessibility belong amongst my self-taught skills.
Now that you know a bit about me, I am happy to share some of my work with you below.

Zoo New York
Overview
The project of redesigning Zoo New York aims to redesign its website. The Zoo has been working on digitizing most of their work and would like to display more useful information on their website with some interaction features. At time of redesigning, the original website was not mobile friendly.
Goals
- 1. Sort out the most important parts of the website and focus on bringing them forward
- 2. Prioritize the content, seeing most users access websites through smaller screens
- 3. Replace images with better quality and message
My Role
In this project, my role was to come up with a suggestion of a redesign with the project goals in mind. I started off with creating the wireframe for the landing page to ensure the important parts of the website could be placed in sections. Through wireframing, I was able to construct the hierarchy with ease throughtout the content, such as headings, paragraphs, divs etc.
I brought forward some new high quality images that fit the different elements - for example, the header demonstrates interaction between the animals and visitors coming to the zoo.
Project Two Coding: Wordpress Theme
Two Column Layout
Overview
The project of coding an entire Wordpress theme from scratch I constructed in attempts of better learning the CMS structure. This project is independent from any other themes or plugins.
Goals
- 1. Establish a good foundation and ease-to-follow structure
- 2. Enable widget area to be controlled in the Widgets section of Wordpress dashboard
My Role
In this project, my role was to come up with a simple design that would serve simple content-based websites - for instance, fan sites. I was to create each required file for the theme from scratch and link them seamlessly. My first challenge was setting up the structure and defining the IDs and classes, then figure out how-to ensure flexibility in the content by user input.
Like all my other web projects, I was able to construct the hierarchy with ease throughtout the content, such as headings, paragraphs, divs etc.
