UI/UX Design & Front-End Development
Hi, I'm Amy — a design engineer who found her way to code through creativity, community, and a lifelong love of making things people enjoy using. My path ran through theater stages and classrooms, and each chapter taught me how to collaborate genuinely, problem-solve, and empathize with the people on the other side of the screen.
I build accessible, people-first interfaces and show up as a teammate who's curious, dependable, and genuinely invested in the work.
About
I bridge the gap between design and code — turning UX vision into accessible, production-ready interfaces with a sharp eye for detail, a deep respect for design systems, and a genuine commitment to the people using what I build.
My Approach:
I believe great interfaces emerge from understanding both user needs and technical reality. I start with empathy—researching how people will use a product—then translate those insights into accessible, intuitive designs. My unique value is moving fluidly between wireframes and working code, prototyping in both Figma and React to explore ideas and validate solutions quickly.
With 5+ years of frontend development experience (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript ES6+), I excel at building component libraries, implementing design systems, and championing WCAG accessibility standards. Currently expanding my expertise in React, TypeScript, and UX research methodologies to deepen the bridge between design thinking and engineering execution.
