Hi! I’m Eva, a (nascent) web developer with an English (20th C African American lit focus) background. Here are my skills:

Project management: This is not my preference — I’m organized and generally good at sticking to deadlines (she said, on a post a day late), but I work better as a collaborator when I’m not project managing. 

Development: My last three semesters as a full-time DAV student have definitely kickstarted my data-driven development skills. I’m comfortable in web development (HTML, CSS, Javascript), collaboration with Github, and data viz softwares like Tableau, d3.js, Mapbox and Arc or QGIS. I’d consider this a definite strength of mine at this point. 

Design/UX: I have a decent baseline understanding here, but would absolutely love to support someone else who has knowledge/expertise with wireframing and other design skills. I’m trying to improve my skills in translating a design vision to actual shapes/colors/lines/fonts/icons etc, and would jump at the opportunity to support and learn from someone who knows more. 

Outreach/social media: This is not so much my thing, but I have some experience leveraging my network to get word out about projects, and am happy to send emails/make calls under someone else’s direction.

Documentation: I’m a strong writer, and a big goal of mine is documenting projects in ways that make them accessible and shareable. I want to make high quality academic work that is relevant and accessible to the public.

Research: I’m strong here — I have a liberal arts background and was an English major with a focus on critical race theory and DH. I’ve done a few projects with heavy literary DH research and writing in the last couple years, and my research interests include data ethics and the intersections of race, labor, and algorithmic control.
