My background is Computer Science, with a passion for design. I have been working freelance for more than 9 years for a big variety of clients and agencies.
I can communicate well with (product/project) managers as well as with other designers and developers. I can easily work by myself, but also love to cooperate with others (internal or external) to get the job done. I keep my knowledge up to date by visiting conferences and by keeping in close touch with colleagues.
You can hire me on a project basis, but I am also available for a long term cooperation. I do a lot of remote work which works very well for me.
Please check out the kind of projects I have done and what I can do for you.
I am part of a large project team where I am responsible to implement the base design onto the Drupal CMS - using CSS. We are deploying the (complicated) site in multiple phases.

ctc-n.orgI redesigned the visual style for a set of Apps they use in the health industry. I have developed a ‘style guide’ for the use and implementation of these apps on the jQuery/Ionic framework.
I was responsible for building the HTML/CSS templates for the well known website optimizers Yoast, together with Frozen Rockets. The templates were implemented on their own WordPress site.
yoast.comDe Nederlandse Taalunie (the Dutch Language Union) is an international institution that governs issues regarding the Dutch language. I did and do various projects - design as well as realization - mostly on the basis of the Drupal CMS.
I often work in larger teams - where I have the role of front-end specialist. I can help translate identities and designs into good, responsive, stable and fast HTML and CSS.
If you need a front-end expert to implement a site (re)design onto HTML/CSS, I can translate existing identities, provide advice from a technical perspective and transform a design into valid (responsive) HTML and CSS.
I have broad experience with (responsive) website and app design. For ‘smaller’ corporate or project sites I take care of the implementation, preferable in WordPress. Alternatively, after the design and development phase, I can also deliver the front-end to a back-end party.
I don’t do JavaScript frameworks or build/implement large back-end systems. I am not available for a full time job - and I don’t work for equity. I also don't build quick and cheap websites for your business.
