Development

I’ve been building and managing client websites since 2009 and have made multiple contributions to Open Source projects like WordPress. I’m proficient in HTML5, CSS3, PHP, JavaScript, and WordPress; a competent user of Python, R, React, React Native, Node.JS, and various other JavaScript and CSS libraries and frameworks; and have taught website design and development as part of the core technology curriculum in GPA International High School from 2013-2019. Since then, I’ve made some online coding courses, and had various special lectures on coding languages in other schools.

My current coding interests (2021) are: React, Gatsby, Node.JS, Python, R, and React Native. I hope to learn Kotlin soon as well and get deeper into app development.

I’m also an experienced graphic designer specializing in Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator. I’ve freelanced since 2011 and have professional experience creating business cards, brochures, ads, flyers, posters, banners, t-shirts, logos, websites, branded materials, newsletters, magazines, books, and more. Since 2018, I’ve been the graphic designer for the quarterly publication of the Jeonbuk Life magazine put out by the Jeollabuk-do Center for International Affairs (JBCIA). I additionally taught graphic design and computer literacy courses at GPA High School from 2014-2019.
