I've been on frontend since IE vs Netscape was the browser war, I love to write my code at hand, I've done it on HTML, XHTML and HTML5, CSS, CSS3, JavaScript & jQuery (among others); I've made implementations on ColdFusion, ASP Classic, ASP/.net, ASP/MVC, PHP (standalone, on Yii & Cake), I've also created themes for Joomla, Drupal and WordPress, and built systems connected to API/JSON. I've also built HTML emails & responsive webs. Currently I use gulp to run tasks, SASS to re-utilize my code and liquid/jade/nunjucks for templating, I love to learn every day, keeping improving and optimizing what I do.

I started working on Mambo years ago, later used its fork, Joomla, building sites from small to large; during time I worked too with Drupal and recently with WordPress. While most of my work has been doing front end implementations (theme/templates), I'm also capable of fully set up and configure a CMS-based web.

I've started bulding custom themes for WordPress, coming from other CMSs, was matter of time to be involved in every aspect of WordPress development, since install/configuration/customization, to build entirely customized solutions with custom theme (per PSD design) implementation, custom plugins, custom post types, custom fields, and a lot more.

Second time using Jesus. He helped me find an issue in my configuration which prevented me from importing some bootstrap SASS files. He provided me with expert advice and I will continue to use his services.

Can't recommend Jesus more highly. As a Mentor he has been awesome. When I required bug fixes to my website that required his expertise, he was able to resolve all issues systematically and efficiently. He is extremely patient, very knowledge and technically proficient. I definitely look forward to working him again

Working on mainly three axis: - Converting designs into HTML/CSS pages/templates, used as demo prototypes for clients or basis to be taken for other developers to build web applications/websites. Most of design implemented as responsive - standard compliant using HTML5/CSS3. - Creating WordPress themes or editing/customizing already made ones, some theme complex to render special data views using custom fields on the backend. - Giving remote training workshops to the team, about web basics, standard compliance, CSS, Foundation framework. On frontend tasks, worked on several platforms / frameworks, to ensure crossbrowsing and optimized rendering, one big project was to convert and old and big intranet site into a revamped responsive web app, wiring up Foundation framework from ZURB along with redesign implementation.
