My Approach
Understanding of the overall project scope and work helps create efficient timelines. When organizing the multiple developers on my team, it was important to utilize a project management system such as JIRA to assign tasks and sprints. Every morning, I would conduct 1-1 Skype meetings with my team to discuss priorities and timelines according to JIRA tasks. As a project manager, with a design thinking understanding, I attempted to continuously communicate with my client on progress. By doing so, I managed to defuse many client issues.
The Result
Multiple custom websites built on various CMS platforms, based on the client choice, from Magento, Shopify to WordPress. Notable projects include Arrow Furniture, Avia Medical Systems, Cordcruncher, Westco, Rawley Resorts and UHWK.
