I'm Ashley - a Front End Developer from Madison, Mississippi currently residing in Acworth, Georgia. I enjoy every aspect of development, from building to debugging. I'm a highly motivated self-starter who thoroughly enjoys working in a collaborative environment to bring a vision to life on the web.
When I'm not working in my role as a full-time developer, you can find me either at the gym working on my personal fitness goals, teaching a group fitness class, or making the most of my time at home with my six-year-old daughter, Moriah Jade.
My expertise is centered around front-end development; however, I have also worked with content management systems (Wordpress, Drupal), eCommerce platforms, back-end languages (PHP, MySQL) and frameworks (Bootstrap, Foundation, etc.).
I'm a driven, detail-oriented front end/web developer with 10+ years of experience in website development, advanced programming languages and team leadership.
July 2022 - Present
I partner with members of the CRM team and collaborate across multiple departments to brainstorm and collect ideas for transactional communications. I also maintain and develop transactional consumer communications via best in class HTML5, CSS3 & JavaScript and native development logic within Adobe Experience Manager. I apply best practices of email/SMS development, compliance and regulations during the development process as well as perform thorough quality assurance on every communication to ensure that messages are rendering error free and that dynamic content is populating as expected.
February 2015 - July 2022
I deconstruct standard, static Adobe Photoshop elements for the creation of online banner advertisements and rich interactive media units and convert them into functional working ad units. Tools used were predominantly Google (DoubleClick) Studio, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript & jQuery. I also QA final content, both pre and post publish, to insure that they meet the technical requirements prior to traffic submission.
January 2014 - February 2015
I worked closely with the Sr. Developer and Project Manager to provide ideas and solutions for the development of new healthcare products using either Foundation Framework or from the ground up using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScirpt & jQuery. I also evaulated said code to insure that it was properly structured and compliant to web standards, and performed cross-browser/device testing for framework and code to insure consistency.
May 2011 - January 2014
I was responsible for the development and implementation of assigned eCommerce & informational websites, blogs and social media pages. It was here that I evaulated RTML code, HTML, CSS JavaScript & jQuery code to insure that it was properly structured, correct and met industry standards and was compatible across browsers, devices and operating systems. I also utilized PHP for back end development of Wordpress and Drupal platforms and new feature development. Prior to a project's completion, I also created well-written documentation for client information, functionality, manageability and usability.

I develop clean informational and eCommerce websites that will work on a variety of screens and devices and may or may not be powered by Wordpress and/or responsive. I also provide assistance for the logistics of the initial set up of of your website and backend support.
Organized, semantic and clean code using HTML5, CSS3 & jQuery to bring your vision to life on the web! I prefer to code from scratch instead of using frameworks to ensure less bloat and decreased load time, but will use the correct platform and language(s) that are most suitable for the project. This also includes cross-browser and cross-platform testing.
I practice safe-handling of Wordpress templates to create custom themes to fit your designs and ideas. This also includes plug-in installation and regular theme maintenance.
If it has not already been established, I can provide support with the set up of web hosting for your website. This will require login credentials, payment processing and clear communication on both ends to ensure that your web hosting is properly set up for the development of your amazing website.
