About Me

Hi. I’m Krystal and I have helped many companies develop an online presence that meets goals and increases visibility.

I spend my days in many different areas from back end programming to front end engineering, marketing, wireframing, process workflows and mapping, user experience and visual design as well as managing teams of developers and designers.

Multiple years of experience in the industry has helped me become a strong driving force for improving performance, scalability, and reliability of all different facets of development projects. Including the creation of a innovative project discovery and planning program that has helped direct and clarify needs, as well as defines the path to meet online goals.
