Hi! I’m R.J.

I make websites.

About Me

I’m a web developer, homebrewer, and super-nerd in Seattle. I love rain, tattoos, craft beer, highfalutin coffee, and your dog.

While I have experience up and down the web stack, my background is in graphic design, and my sweet spot is on the front end. I do my best work closely alongside visual and UX designers, building scalable design systems and figuring out performant and accessible solutions for tricky functionality or unique layouts.

I currently work for Turnstyle. I also have a famous cat.

My Work

Most of the code I write professionally is private/under NDA, but here are a few fun projects you can check out.

Poggio La Noce

Including a multi-region/language e-commerce flow, Poggio La Noce's website involved complex inventory management and subtle design touches.

Wildtype

Wildtype's website features advanced SVG animation and masking effects with page transitions built with Barba.js and Anime.js. Try the Konami code.

Stowers Institute

Stowers Institute's website involved large-scale content modeling and nuanced animation to consolidate multiple websites into a single experience.

Teague

Teague’s website incorporates a highly-flexible CMS with advanced GSAP animation sequences and modern JavaScript page transitions.
