Web Developer, General Nerd

Hey there, I'm Steve Perry (not the one from Journey.) I'm a web developer based out of the Metro Detroit area of Michigan and a graduate of Michigan State University. I work at High Level Marketing (HLM), a nationwide digital media marketing and tech company.

During my eleven years at HLM, I've built over 600 websites for our clients, all of which use our proprietary CMS. I've also worked on multiple client-facing dashboard web applications. I'm currently working on the next iteration of our reporting dashboard.

I've worked with Git extensively throughout my career, using GitHub, GitLab, and BitBucket for repository hosting. I've set up continuous integration and deployment pipelines to streamline our development process via GitHub Actions.

For frontend build technologies, I've used the obvious languages: HTML, CSS (Sass mostly), and Javascript. I'm versed in OOP principles due to the use of PHP within HLM's proprietary CMS, MYCE.

My role has shifted throughout the years to a more full-stack one, as I contribute more frequently to HLM's internal app platform.

One of my recent projects involved using VueJS with WebPack as a bundler and Bootstrap for our CSS framework. Working with other Senior Developers, we rewrote our RESTful API for our new enterprise-level application. It leveraged Amazon's API Gateway (and other associated AWS services).

The next iteration of HLM's reporting dashboard is being built with .NET, showcasing our commitment to leveraging technologies for enhanced performance and scalability.

The website you're currently viewing is a single page application built in VueJS, using Vite as the bundler and Netlify as a hosting service. Here's the code, if you're interested.
