Email designer & developer

Accomplished email designer and developer motivated by challenging projects and fresh ideas. I love to work on projects with inspiring people that challenge the status quo. Successful history in full life cycle development with extensive experience designing & building responsive emails compatible in over 40+ email clients as well as websites (using HTML5, CSS3 and various web scripting technologies).

A fast learner with strong time management, communication, and interpersonal skills with a keen eye for detail. Creative, resourceful, flexible, able to adapt to changing priorities and maintain a positive attitude while staying calm under pressure.
