About

Hello!
My name is Nicholas Treffiletti, I’m an agile, web designer and developer with a simple, friendly approach to creating high quality web applications for you or your business. I make unique and usable websites using XHTML, CSS, JavaScript and web standards.

A little about myself…
Starting out, I was strictly a designer. My education began in engineering, so I’ve always had a curiosity about how things work. As my years as a web designer have progressed, I’ve picked up more web developer skills. I enjoy working in teams, but also like being able to do things from start to finish. Below are some of my skills.

As a result I have become a front-end web designer and developer intent on leveraging the semantic html, concise css and the most functional javascript frameworks to turn fresh ideas into the next groundbreaking web application.

I’m currently in search of a team of professionals eager to harness my skills as a web developer and push the boundaries of online user experience.

It’s all about the experience…
At it’s core, my web development expertise is focused on user experience. This means that rather than just making your website ‘work’ my job as a user experience designer is to ensure the overall experience and satisfaction a user has when visiting your website. Here is a list of the areas in which I focus on more specifically:
