About Me

Nick Jennes - Web Developer

Nick Jennes - Adobe Certified Associate

Hello! I’m Nick Jennes, an experienced multi-faceted designer & developer that wears many hats. I specialize in creating beautiful, user-friendly and professional websites using the latest and best web standards and practices. Over the 15 years of my professional career I've created, recoded and overhauled websites, drove the UI/UX design vision, and brought recognition and revenue to the companies I worked for.

Background

I graduated from Western Washington University with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and concentrations in Digital Media, Website Design, Graphic Design, Industrial Design and Studio Art. I graduated from Golden West College with an Associates of Arts degree and majored in Digital Arts, and also acquired a Certificate of Achievement in Graphic Design Production, and two Certificates of Specialization in Graphic/Website Design and Graphic Design Advanced Production.

I was born near Cleveland, Ohio as the youngest of six kids, and we moved to Seattle, Washington when I was 12. I had a fun and adventurous upbringing making art, playing guitar, riding bikes, skiing & snowboarding, spending time with family and friends, traveling to Italy and much more, and I carry these hobbies into my adult life. After moving to southern California, I’ve travelled all over Europe (planning to go back) and started a lovely family, so things are going great!
