Some of the technologies used on this site and other projects I have worked on include HTML5, CSS3 (SASS) complemented by the Bourbon & Neat grid layout and Wordpress theme creation when necessary. For more dynamic solutions I use Javascript, Jquery, and automation tools such as Grunt, Bower and Github along with good knowledge of best practices in Accessibility, User experience, SEO and W3C standards.

I am currently delving in to React JS but my main focus is always on expanding my JavaScript level for projects in the near future.
