Laura Kajpust, Developer

My primary skill set lies as a frontend developer working with JavaScript in frameworks like Ember.js, ranging from simple single-page applications into more complex apps. I also work closely with designers to converting their work from Zeplin, Invision, or Sketch into responsive HTML/CSS templates. More recently, I have expanded my knowledge with Ruby on Rails to create my own API endpoints, services, and background workers.

As a developer, I've had opportunities to grow my skills with apps for multiple industries, including publishing, marketing, healthcare, financial, and education. My artistic background has aided me to collaborate and communicate effectively with other designers, and also to help clients grasp technical concepts.

Friends don't let friends write bad commit messages...unless they're hilarious.
