Calgary Web Designer Jenn Armour | Info Architecture + User Centric Web Design + Online Marketing + Social Media + Ideas

About Me

I am a senior, user experience focused interactive web designer and online marketer that lives in Calgary, AB, Canada. Here are some of the experiences I have had in the past 7 years of being in the industry: worked in design agencies, make your business look professional in the online space, collaborated and consulted with businesses on web strategies, been part of large design implementations, contracted with seo/sem companies, built strict, standards based, tableless, accessible front-end interfaces for php programmers, extensively used open-source products to build web products for businesses, wrote and implemented successful online marketing strategies.

As a successful vancouver freelancer for many years, I became a competent independent learner and learnt to have both big picture application abilities as well as detailed practical skills. In essence the freelancer has skill sets that out number the typical worker. These are invaluable skills I have relied on when employed in a company and in life.
