WEBSITE PORTFOLIO

Hi, I'm Karen Cassine, a front-end web developer with over four years of experience building custom templates for platforms like WordPress, Kentico, Netlify, and Webflow. In my recent roles, I’ve developed and managed over 100 websites across corporate and nonprofit sectors, working with a wide range of tools and technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, React, and WordPress. I regularly use Figma and Draw.io for prototyping and user flow design, and I implement heat maps and performance audits to optimize post-launch performance. I’m also well-versed in version control systems like Git, and I’ve integrated APIs, handled domain/DNS configurations, managed CMS platforms, and optimized websites for SEO, accessibility, and speed. My approach to development is always user-first and detail-oriented, with a focus on building scalable and maintainable code.
