I’m Hope, a developer based in Coeur d'Alene/Spokane who loves building clean, responsive, and engaging web experiences. My focus is on frontend development, crafting intuitive user interfaces with React, JavaScript, and modern CSS—but I also work with backend technologies like Node.js, PHP, and SQL to create full-stack applications.
I thrive on solving problems and refining details—whether it’s tweaking an animation for a better user experience or optimizing a database query for efficiency. My approach is simple: push past the comfort zone, keep learning, and build things that matter.
I design and develop fully responsive and user-friendly websites, ensuring they look stunning and perform seamlessly across all devices. Using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, I build interactive and high-performance web experiences, ensuring an engaging user journey.
I build end-to-end applications by combining frontend expertise with backend development. I work with SQL, Node.js, PHP, and MongoDB to create scalable, database-driven applications that complement well-structured frontends.
I design and manage SQL and NoSQL databases, ensuring efficient data storage and retrieval for web applications. From structuring relational databases with PostgreSQL & MySQL to working with MongoDB for flexible document-based storage, I ensure secure and optimized data management.
I don’t just integrate APIs—I also build them. Using Node.js and PHP, I create custom RESTful APIs that enable secure and scalable data exchange. I also have experience integrating third-party APIs (such as Google Maps, Stripe, and OpenWeather) to add dynamic functionality to web applications.
A fast and optimized website drives engagement and conversions. I enhance website performance, accessibility, and search engine rankings through code optimizations, caching strategies, and SEO best practices.
I specialize in designing user-centric applications by conducting thorough UX research, creating wireframes, and prototyping with tools like Figma. My designs prioritize intuitive navigation and visually appealing interfaces to enhance user satisfaction.
