Senior Front-end Developer @ College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA)

About

I build digital experiences that work for everyone -not just most people. With 20+ years in UI/UX and frontend development, I've shipped accessible, high-performance platforms across healthcare, agency, and nonprofit sectors.  At CPSA, I reduced page load times by 99.44%, improved system performance by 99.98%, and drove a 90% increase in user task completion -on platforms serving physicians across Alberta. I led stakeholder discovery processes lasting over a year to ensure technology actually matched business reality, not just requirements documents. My toolkit spans React, TypeScript, Vue, Angular, Next.js, SCSS, Figma, and Vite. My standard is WCAG 2.1/2.2. My edge is taste -I can spot a component off by a pixel from across a room, and I care enough to fix it.  I'm currently available for senior front-end, UX, or accessibility-focused roles -across Canada (remote-friendly).

Reduced page load times by 99.44% -rebuilt front-end architecture across physician-facing platforms serving all of Alberta. Improved system performance by 99.98% through front-end optimization, directly impacting platform reliability for 10,000+ physician users. Increased user task completion rates by 90% through UX redesign informed by 12+ months of stakeholder discovery and business process mapping.

Led full front-end stack: React, TypeScript, Vue, SCSS, Vite, Figma -delivering WCAG-compliant, responsive platforms on time. My position allowed me to be versatile working on front-end development, design (UI), and UX at CPSA, this included such projects as the main CPSA site and the Physician Search as well as a many internal and portal-like software. A big part of my role was improving and building applications that support Alberta physicians, stakeholders, and the public.

Below are some client works that span from from UI design to integration into .net CMS to even DNN modules development. I introduced HTML mobile developments and trained clients and employees alike.

Never have I felt so exhilarated than when I worked on the adidas Campaigns, as well as other government and international web sites. Sid Lee grabbed a hold of me even before I got out of University and they launched me into the fast-paced ever-changing international world of advertising. I could not be more grateful for the experiences they have given me and I shall never forget the opportunities they've opened up for me when I joined one of the world's top web companies.
