Jeff Wilkerson

Hi! I'm Jeff Wilkerson, an independent UI/UX developer with over 20 years of experience. I strive to create intuitive, user-focused experiences while collaborating with teams that complement my technical skills with creativity and flair.

Recently my professional curiousities have exploded with the rise of AI and other sophisticated collaboration tools. In just 2024 I've done the following:

  • Web application development with Angular and Material UI
  • Custom content management solutions leveraging GrapesJS and Monaco Editor
  • Shopify app creation using React and GraphQL
  • API integration with RxJS

I moved to PDX in 2014 to establish roots in a town valuing tolerance and accessibility. I continue to pursue these goals, offering my expertise to my community and fostering growth opportunities.

When not webdevvin'...
I love exploring landscapes and hiking trails. I've been fortunate to have a loyal canine companion for many years.

About Me

Jeff and his dog Suzy

I live with a body affected by cerebral palsy, and as a counter measure, I have pursued a personal yoga practice for over 25 years, including some adaptive yoga teacher training. My practice has taught me the value of resiliency, adaptability, and creative problem-solving. These skills extend into my professional work, where I bring perseverance and an adaptive mindset to every project I take on. Whether professionally or in a yoga class I enjoy empowering others, building trust within groups, and creating an environment where everyone can thrive.
