I know nearly all the tricks and "gotcha's" of CSS and write semantic HTML. I use whatever I need to, whether it be purely CSS and HTML, SVG, or JavaScript, in order to achieve the effect I desire to create. I've used HAML, SCSS, Bootstrap, Foundation, and several other frameworks and pre-processors to enhance my capabilities and efficiency as a developer. I've written a couple of CSS-Tricks articles on the subject of CSS animation and write about it on my personal blog as well.

All the websites I make are responsive. I've written a lot on the subject and preach responsive design to all designers and developers. A mobile-first approach is a must to make the development process easier to make cross platforms.

I love making the web animated and interactive. Creating responsive animations and interactions is perhaps my favorite thing to do on the web. I've written articles on CSS-Tricks on web animation and have created hundreds, of web animations using SVG, CSS3, and various JavaScript libraries like GSAP and Velocity.js.

I love the freedom that JavaScript allows. Though I'm not a master at all thing JS, I use it daily and really enjoy debugging it. I have learned to use libraries like GSAP and Velocity in order to try and make creating animations easier and perform better.

I worked for GreenSock for a time and am an expert in GSAP.

I've given talks at local developer and design meetups, presentations at companies I've worked at, and spoken at Front-Trends in Warsaw, Poland.
