Hi, I'm Dakota
Iām a hyper-curious creative driven by a deep love of design, technology, and storytelling.
After attending a small art school for fiction writing, I spent the first several years of my career at magazines that include American Craft, Monkeybicycle, Paper Darts, and Yoga International. I love learning about new ways to tell meaningful narratives on the web: especially hybrid approaches that mix data, design, and interaction into participatory experiences that are accessible to everyone.
I currently work as a front-end engineer, with a UI/UX focus that includes in-depth experience with design systems, accessibility, and web animation.
And when I'm not coding? I love to spend time creating minimalist illustrations of plants.
