Hi, I'm Jennifer.
I'm a software developer with a background in art, design, and teaching. I build responsive, accessible, SEO-focused web experiences with a strong emphasis on thoughtful interfaces, reusable component systems, and content workflows that are easy for teams to maintain.
My work often sits at the intersection of engineering, design, content, and marketing. I design layouts and user flows in Figma, build them in Vue and Nuxt, and use tools like Sanity, analytics, and technical SEO to create web experiences that are polished, practical, and aligned with real business goals.
When I'm not coding, you'll find me hanging out with my family, puttering in the garden, or slowly converting my lawn into a native plant haven.
SKILLS
I'm a software developer at MoreSteam, where I build and maintain responsive, accessible, SEO-focused web experiences across marketing sites, product interfaces, client portals, course pages, and reporting tools. My work spans Vue, Nuxt, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Sanity, ColdFusion, C#, and SQL, with a focus on creating reusable component systems, CMS-powered content workflows, and polished user experiences that support both business goals and user needs.
A significant part of my work sits at the intersection of engineering, design, content, and marketing. I design product and eLearning components, page layouts, and user flows in Figma, then build and refine them in code. I also support technical SEO, analytics implementation, structured data, Core Web Vitals, accessibility, and performance optimization, helping teams create web experiences that are not only functional, but findable, maintainable, and easy to improve over time.
I entered the tech field through We Can Code IT, a full-time software development bootcamp where I studied Java, JavaScript, RESTful APIs, Spring, HTML/CSS, and Thymeleaf. Since then, I’ve expanded into modern front-end frameworks, CMS integrations, back-end services, analytics platforms, and AI-assisted development workflows, using tools such as Sanity, Matomo, GA4, Google Tag Manager, and AI coding assistants to build more efficient and scalable solutions.
My career began in photography, design, and education. I earned a BFA from the Columbus College of Art & Design, taught Digital Photography and Photoshop at Columbus State for 13 years, and ran my own photography business for 11 years. That background gave me a strong foundation in visual storytelling, layout, hierarchy, usability, and clear communication. Those strengths continue to shape how I approach front-end development, UX, and digital product design today.
