Web Development, Applications & Programming
I have years of experience in designing and developing websites for different industries. I created over 100 websites, and out of that, 15 to 20 are large-scale websites with a dynamic CMS system.
I was humbled that I could help so many companies with my expertise in leading the project's research, strategy, and design phases.
As I got more involved and dealt with the complex project architect, I gained phenomenal expertise in creating strategy across all brands (national and local) to enhance user journey and manage website implementation as it aligns with business needs and overall brand strategy, establishing the best practices for web technology enhancements, integrations, and migrations,
Creating a Road Map as a Web Strategist:
Working with a Specialty Motion web project, I effectively gained highly experienced HTML language to translate business strategies into websites. I developed a 335 pages website hand-coded in HTML for six months in 2007, creating roadmaps including product strategies & product specifications that deliver the company’s core customer value propositions.
My journey just started in 2006 with the Specialty Motion Project. I get pretty savvy in Web Technology by keeping my hands dirty and gaining years of experience building and maintaining information based, corporate, nonprofit, and eCommerce websites, with -

- Responsive website
In 2007 I started testing and debugging sites with Cross-browsers, platforms, and multiple devices.
In 2008 I started learning Php & My SQL by taking classes in UCR extension for two months. My idea was not to be a hardcore PHP developer but to understand the logic of PHP programs to talk as a web strategist. I decided to take my career to the next level as a web strategist or web project lead. Later in, between 2010 to 2014
I started to take hands-on training on -

When Adobe introduced Adobe Experience to create a template-based website using WordPress templates, I thought it was a unique platform to target landing pages on a demography basis. This platform is a handy enterprise-level multi-vendor website platform meeting the requirements of designing unlimited template-based sites for numerous business locations.
Starting working on an Ecommerce Platform
