Hello, I am
Helen Lehrer.Full stack developer making magic on the web.
Hello! My name is Helen and I love contributing to the most influential invention of our time- the Internet. My interest in all things digital media began in middle school when I won a logo design contest for a local auction company and the prize was a Nikon Coolpix digital camera. From there, my creative interests evolved from graphic design to multimedia arts and videography and ultimately landed in the field of web development. I am passionate about optimizing systems and creating digital interactions that feel natural and seamless.
Knowledgeable about what goes on behind the scenes from handling databases to creating RESTful APIs and building scalable server-side applications.
Proficient with creating visually appealing and responsive components that are scalable, maintainable, and high-performing.
Skillful in crafting engaging and intuitive digital experiences by blending interactive and visual design principles into seamless user journeys.
