This portfolio uses the latest CSS features, like scroll driven animations and view transitions, your browser does not support (all of) them. I've added fallback animations, but for the best experience, please consider using a modern chromium-based browser.

Sharing knowledge is a big part of what I like about being a developer, from time to time I speak at meetups and in 2024, for the first time, at a conference.

    Creative Development for dummies – how to make your animations ✨pop✨

    “Can you add some scroll animations?” is the new “can you make the logo bigger?” for creative developers, but sometimes less is more. Motion can be used to enrich experiences but there’s a fine line between creative development and animating everything. Let’s walk that line together and talk about why your animations don’t ✨pop✨ (yet).

    A creative developer’s guide to creating accessible, award winning websites

    Creative developers, designers, and clients often skip over accessibility, even though making websites accessible is usually pretty easy, and fun! As creatives we should be on the frontier of building digital experiences that are inclusive and enjoyable for all users. In this talk we’ll think about accessibility as an opportunity for innovation, let’s embrace the challenge!
