Led front-end development for donor engagement and fundraising products. Planned the codebase restart and established tooling and coding standards. Redeveloped the donation widget using almost entirely vanilla JavaScript (ES6), built with a native toolchain (Node.js, Yarn, Webpack). Implemented all stylesheet work with SASS; HTML and layout designed to meet WCAG 2.1 and ARIA 1.1 accessibility guidelines. Produced comprehensive documentation for future developers and created extensive Selenium WebDriver tests to identify regressions and ensure cross-browser compatibility. Set browser standards based on TLS 1.2 to meet PCI DSS compliance. Delivered a high-performance, accessible product that integrates with legacy codebases and APIs and is in active production with clients like Stanford University, the Arthritis Foundation, and CaringBridge.

Senior Web Developer at EveryAction

March 1, 2022 - September 16, 2025

Led frontend work on a major donation/product modernization during a period of acquisitions. Planned and executed a codebase restart, established tooling and coding standards, and independently rebuilt a donation form widget from scratch. The widget was developed largely with vanilla JavaScript (ES6), using a native toolchain (Node.js, Yarn, Webpack), styled with SASS, and designed to be accessible under WCAG 2.1 / ARIA 1.1 guidelines. Authored developer documentation, created and maintained Selenium-based tests to catch regressions, and set browser/TLS standards to support PCI DSS compliance. Resulting product delivered improved load times and reliability and is being adopted by multiple nonprofit clients.

Senior Web Developer / Frontend Team Lead at GiveGab

April 1, 2021 - September 16, 2025

During the GiveGab era, as the sole frontend developer, I planned and executed a complete rewrite of our donation form product from scratch. I defined the codebase restart, established tooling and coding standards, and delivered a working product while continuing to support other client projects. I built the donation widget using vanilla JavaScript (ES6) with native tooling (Node.js, Yarn, Webpack), styled components with SASS, and ensured accessibility per WCAG 2.1 / ARIA 1.1. I documented the codebase and created a robust Selenium test suite to prevent regressions, and I aligned browser behavior with TLS 1.2 to meet PCI DSS requirements. The widget gained wide adoption across major nonprofit clients and integrated with legacy APIs.
