Experience Highlights

Rocktree Capital

Rocktree Capital's Landing page was a frontend 3D landing page. The goal of the project was to create an award winning project and as a result, the project was very frontend heavy. I collaborated with another developer who was more experienced with threejs. The project was not only challenging but also invigorating, especially in getting different devices to work well with the 3D assets, switching between 3D and plain text, ensuring it's search engine compatible and integrating perfectly with it's backend content management system. It's a cool interactive project that I am very proud of.

Gemach Landing Page

Gemach DAO (the client in this case), was in need of a redesign on their landing page. The new site was supposed to showcase their products/offerings in a way that would appeal to their users. The challenging aspect of the site was related to it's animations and integrating Rive (which was fairly new at the time the project was developed). Additionally, responsiveness was also an issue that needed attention as Gemach's client base use both mobile and desktop devices. I was able to fix these issues and delivered the project ahead of time.

Belvoir Capital Landing Page

Belvoir Capital was a landing page project. The client wanted a breath of fresh air to their existing landing page. As such, it was a landing page with a few added components that would "modernize" the client's existing site. It was not a design heavy project as such, the initial phases went fast. However, the need to add data feeds with charts to the site added a layer of complexity that needed fixing. I was able to ultimately fix these issues and work on aspects such as the charting tooltips, responsiveness and processing the different feeds to make sure it works well with the site.

Hinata Marketplace

Hinata Marketplace is a project by the Hinata DAO. it is an NFT marketplace where digital art creators can create collections, mint NFTs, and anyone with an NFT can list them to sell. Additionally, the site also included aspects such as rewards system for holders of Hinata (an ERC20 token) among others who use any of the products in the Hinata ecosystem.

Hinata Landing Page

This project entailed the development of Hinata DAO's landing page. The key components of the project were developed using Svelte, TailwindCSS and most of the Javascript heavy-lifting was done using Typescript.
