SEEKING WORK - Remote

I'm a full stack web developer specialized in front-end development and UI Design.

My primary service to clients is the creation of landing pages, using my understanding of interface design as well as user behavior patterns which ultimately lead to higher conversion rates.

The most recent landing page I've built was for Slice Capital (http://slice.capital) and am currently working part-time as a design consultant with them.

I typically charge from $700 - $1k for a single-page landing page with optional features such as contact forms, and custom integrations/demos based on your product.

I also particularly enjoy conceptualizing/implementing weird esoteric media projects for the web, so if somehow you're here and looking for a really unique brand presence online, let's talk :)

My skillset:

    HTML/Jade/EJS
    CSS/LESS/Sass 
        (visual design both in terms of user behavior +
         aesthetic is a notable strength of mine)
    JavaScript/React 
        (worked on real estate automation startup on 
         property valuation tooling, implementing 
          data migration/sanitization/analysis on a 
         database of more than 1M property records)
    Node.js/Express/etc
    MongoDB
    PostgreSQL
    Git
    PaaS/IaaS setup/deployment
Email me @ krish@slice.capital

Thanks!

SEEKING WORK - New York/Brooklyn, NY or remote

I'm a full stack web developer with over five years of experience turning ideas into production apps. My clients have been startups, agencies, big companies and non-profits, examples include the New York Times, Cleversafe, Planted and Charitybuzz. I prefer writing Ruby and using Rails on the server side but I have also built apps using Ruby with Sinatra and Python with Django or Flask and node.js with Express. I prefer Angular.js for client side apps, though I have also used Ember.js. I'm a good communicator and one of my favorite recent professional experiences was tutoring a beginner programmer in web development (now he's a fulltime dev). In addition to development I also do UX design. Recent projects include: A custom CMS built with Rails for the New York Times Conferences series, UX and Django app for scheduling test suite runs at Cleversafe, a Sinatra + clientside JS application for an international study abroad non-profit.
