Junior front-end developer CV
BIO / ABOUT
My name is Lena Sitnikova and I’m an independent Web designer and developer, also known as Xiu Xiu.
My portfolio consists of many initiatives across Digital Art and Design, mainly from the web field. I have considerable experience in designing and developing websites using building platforms (Tilda, Cargo Collective, Webflow) + code modifications. The latest projects include some fully coded websites that runs on Cargo.site. During 2021-2023 I gained 40+ international awards and mentions (including Behance UI/UX ribbon, x2 404foundation weekly favourite, x4 Awwwards HM, and other).
My main focus now stands in the intersection of code and design. Currently I study generative design and creative coding and processing, whereas my working interest has shifter towards front-end development.
// Right now I’m seeking a remote/on site FRONT-END developer (or “Cargo + code” developer) position.
Aside of main working experience, I teach Tilda developers basics of HTML/CSS/JS and code modifications (Code Mode course); I run
a youtube channel dedicated to code modifications for Cargo Collective; I also have some public speaking experience,
and I curate a non-commercial project and design gallery
“the design dump”.
