Web Developer
Welcome to my portfolio.
My name is Jeremy Jewell and I am a highly motivated and creative web developer specializing in front-end development.
I am proficient JavaScript, React, AJAX, and PHP. Detail-oriented and self-motivated, eager to learn new programming languages and contribute to innovative projects. My diverse background equips me with a unique blend of technical skills, creativity, and effective communication, making me an ideal candidate for your team.
I combine my technical skills and my passion for exploring the historical and social aspects of technology. I have been developing websites with Javascript and React since July 2023, after completing three courses and a skill path from Codecademy. I have also been writing for various publications since 2004, covering the connections between technology and culture.
I have a diverse and rich educational background, and I have published hundreds of articles in different languages and outlets. I bring my lifetime of proven communication skills and broad contextual knowledge to all of my projects.
Let me tell you about my professional experience.
I have been a freelance web developer since 2023, working with clients to create custom websites and web applications.
In 2016 I founded Opportunity Language Academy, and began developing a custom web application to manage the school's operations, along with interactive educational materials. I have been the lead developer on this project since its inception.
Since 2004 I have also been a freelance writer focusing on the connections between technology and culture. Here are some samples of my published writings:
