Matt Highland
Front-End Web Developer

Moshi Moshi (Hi)

I build responsive websites and I love HTML5. I'm a graduate of the Thinkful.com front-end course, and live in the San Francisco bay area.

About Me

photo of Matt

I fell in love with HTML5 about two years ago and have been studying web development ever since. I've split my career between education and business, but I am always happiest when I'm teaching.

HTML Skills

I love the front-end and currently use Sublime with Codekit as a Sass compiler. I'm proficient in HTML5, CSS3, Sass, Jquery, Bootstrap, and have a good foundation in the JavaScript basics. I'm currently focused on improving my Ajax skills and implementing the Compass framework into my Sass projects.

My Web Education

Thinkful.com is a mentorship program that really helped me build a strong foundation in the front-end. I was extremely lucky to have a mentor that really pushed my skills to the next level and I spent alot of time reviewing other students code and adding insights and feedback to the online community.

My Projects

I have some samples from my Thinkful projects as well as personal websites I have worked on recently. I make a solid effort to learn something new, read another blog, and build or improve a project every day.
