Keisha Bien

Full Stack Web Designer and Developer

Saint Paul, MN, USA
Hi, I'm Keisha. I'm a web designer, developer, full-stack pro, graphic & print designer, all around tech savvy. If it's with computers, I can handle the job. My preferred area is web design and development involving hand coding websites from a designed mockup. I'm proficient in HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, jQuery, PHP, and MySQL. I'm looking forward to growing my knowledge as a developer, in areas such at Git, AngularJS, Ruby, and more. I use programs in my day to day life such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Microsoft Office.

My ultimate goal is to make beautiful websites, whether through a great company or by freelance business. I am capable of working both on a team and individually. I have a high attention to details, extreme time management and planning process, and an eye for great design.

I'm currently working out of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area while I finished my Associate's in Applied Science in Web Design & Development from Minneapolis Community & Technical College. I'm also pursuing a Certificate in Graphic Design & Print Media. I will be graduating May 2017. In addition to my college classes, I've taken additional courses on Codecademy and have completed HTML/CSS, jQuery, and PHP with Javascript, Git, SQL, Ruby, and AngularJS in process.

When I'm not working hard on my laptop, I enjoy traveling, knitting, cooking, and spending time outdoors (camping, hiking, kayaking). Thank you for taking the time to stop by my profile - let's chat!
