Front-end developer.
Obsessive about UX.
Powered by coffee.

I turn "can you make it pop?" into clean, accessible applications that people actually want to use. Based in Aiken, SC or working remotely wherever the wifi is good.

Movie Recommender

Type 'something like Parasite but funnier' and actually get good results. TMDb API + AI-powered recommendations with infinite scroll, advanced filtering, and plain-English search that tells you exactly why it thinks you'll love it.

Personal Finance Dashboard

Because 'where did all my money go??' is a question I asked myself one too many times. A full-featured budgeting app with Chart.js visualizations, income/expense tracking, and a responsive layout that makes your finances actually make sense.

Drag & Drop To-Do List

Yes, another to-do app. No, not like the others. Drag-and-drop reordering, custom sort, active/completed filtering, and localStorage persistence — because your tasks shouldn't vanish when you close the tab.

About

Hi, I'm Christina — a developer who cares about the details.

I've spent 7+ years building applications, mostly on the front end but comforable all the way through the stack when needed. My sweet spot is React and TypeScript, and I genuinely love the moment a tricky UI problem finally clicks into place.

I've shipped everything from marketing sites to logicstics platforms and enterprise dashboards -- working with cross-functional teams across design, backend, and product the whole way through.

When I'm not coding, I'm probably hanging out with my cats, trying a new coffee, or convincing myself that just one more component refactor will make everything perfect.

Accessibility first

WCAG isn't a checklist to me — it's the baseline. If someone can't use what I build, I haven't finished building it.

Collaborative by nature

I've spent years at the intersection of design and engineering — I actually enjoy the back-and-forth, and yes, even the stakeholder syncs.

Always learning

My reading list is 90% documentation and I'm genuinely fine with that. New framework, new pattern — figuring it out is half the fun.

I'm currently open to full-time roles and contract work. Whether you have a specific project or just want to say hi - my inbox is always open.

Drop me a line, I don't bite. (I can't guarantee the same for my cats.)
