Upon commencing my employment with Hawkeye, I was fortunate enough to exclusively handle Google emails. However, as my responsibilities grew over time, I gradually took on the task of overseeing Hawkeye's campaign partials for the Google Store wing.

During my tenure, my duties entailed analyzing campaign-specific Figma/Sketch files to create reusable Handlebars and Jinja partials, developing and testing pixel-perfect emails on mobile devices and email testing platforms like Litmus, and performing code reviews for my Hawkeye colleagues.

In the latter stages of my employment, I collaborated solely with Google Store engineers to generate US + rest-of-world AMP emails that incorporated various engaging features for users. Our combined efforts resulted in the successful deployment of interactive emails, which reached a vast audience of millions across the globe.

As a QA analyst, I was responsible for drafting detailed checklists for new HTML emails, landing pages, and plaintext, which involved analyzing HTML/CSS using developer tools to ensure pixel-perfection across multiple email client platforms, and logging bugs through Workfront with concise wording and descriptive screenshots to detail any issues found during testing.

Utilizing the knowledge and skills I gained while working on Google Store emails and partials, my manager entrusted me with the responsibility of assisting the Nest Renew client in creating a reusable set of accessible modules and templates for their forthcoming eco-friendly email campaign updates.

Being the sole developer of this project, I developed reusable email partials utilizing a combination of Handlebars.js and the client's Connect Composer snippet platform. Subsequently, over the following few months, I produced and dispatched several emails to recipients in the United States and Spain.

Over time, I trained additional Hawkeye developers to work on the campaign and produced detailed documentation concerning the frequently used partials and snippets.

As a budding intern I primarily worked on TCI's primary web presence -- specifically the curriculum pages.

During my internship I implemented web accessibility compliance WCAG 2.0 to existing Rails views using core front-end technologies, created modular components with JS libraries, such as React and jQuery, ensured code quality and longevity through unit tests using RSpec and FactoryGirl, and set up CSV generation using Rails helpers, Sidekiq workers, and application PostgreSQL DB data.

For larger tasks such as implementing new web pages, I pair programmed with the primary database manager to pull in CSV / website data to properly populate curriculum pages.

I worked as the lead creative designer and web developer for the redesign of the Casa Del Sol website. Using JavaScript, CSS/LESS, and Bootstrap, I implemented mobile responsive functionality and conducted quality assurance tests across various mobile devices and browser platforms to ensure a consistent user experience. Additionally, I facilitated weekly meetings to discuss feature requests, creative designs, and client feedback.

Working at Starbucks was a transformative experience that changed my life forever. As an introverted individual who struggled with basic social skills, I often envied those who had a natural ability to shine in social settings. However, my desire for change drove me to apply for a job at my local Starbucks. Over the next five and a half years, I underwent a remarkable transformation, becoming the person I always aspired to be.

At Starbucks, I learned invaluable skills that have stayed with me to this day. I honed my ability to connect with others, worked effectively in a fast-paced environment, and leveraged my team to provide unparalleled customer service. Through these experiences, I emerged as a confident, capable, and empathetic person, a far cry from the shy individual I used to be. The skills and qualities I acquired at Starbucks have served me well in both my personal and professional life, making it an experience I will always cherish.
