It Me

Hi I'm Joedy and I am a UX designer and web developer. My focus is on lightweight and accessible web experiences that are device agnostic and appeal to each client's unique branding needs.

I didn't start as a UX designer however. My journey started with a degree in 3d character animation and game design. Sadly my game design career was in another castle, but the principles of design learned through my coursework have served me well in crafting sites that are both innovative and easy to use. I enjoy building web experiences every bit as much as I enjoy programming games because both crafts untimately endeavor to solve the same problems.

Oh yeah, I really like coffee too. I don't think I mentioned that yet.
