My expertise extends to leading projects independently, demonstrating advanced technological skills, and providing subject matter expertise in graphic design and visual communications. I am well-versed in collaborating with creative teams and directing a variety of projects from concept through completion.
Skilled in nearly every aspect of website design, development, production, and management, I utilize a variety of applications, technologies (PHP, HTML, CSS, jQuery, JavaScript, SQL, Adobe CC), and other software services to deliver highly-effective, professional, and polished communications that meet project goals and exceed expectations.
Some of my notable accomplishments include an eCommerce meal delivery service from concept to delivery, a WordPress Learndash LMS, and an event booking and business management system for a non-profit organization. These experiences have honed my ability to turn creative concepts into tangible, impactful results.
The UC San Diego Centers for Integrative Health’s commitment to providing whole-person health care aligns with my professional values and I am eager to contribute my skills to support the Centers’ mission of transforming healthcare through the mind-body-spirit connection. I invite you to view my resume and visit my portfolio at https://designerChad.info/ucsd3232 to experience my demonstrated skills.
