Skills

I put a lot of care into color, whether it's for a website or a simple piece of art and I think it shows.

As far as web development is concerned, specifically the languages: HTML and CSS are the foundation of my pages, understandably.

I tend to only use JavaScript for simple, typical, website button events or animations if I'm feeling creative. 🙂

I use PHP when PHP is the best/only way to achieve something, usually for forms and emails. I've also created simple SQL databases as well.

I use Lighthouse auditing for websites to ensure every page gets at least an 'A' in all fields of performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO.

I love building browser games! Whether I use the Phaser framework or not, it's 90% JavaScript. Check out some of my games at nerdeebirdee.com.

When it comes to music, the pieces I write are usually one big crescendo (starts soft and ends loud) and I write a lot of piano sonatas. 🎵


Animation

Here's a fully responsive, javaScript/CSS animation with audio. The background song is something I wrote. 🙂
