Creativity + Technology

Hi I’m Jocelyn! I am a front end web developer who changed career via General Assembly's intensive 3 month web development bootcamp. Since then I have been accumulating knowledge both on the job and in my free time.

I first worked in the Straits Times' Interactive Graphics team, creating interactive news articles, while also thinking of ideas for news or data visualization projects. This is where I did most of my public professional projects showcased below.

I have also worked in product companies, following 2 week sprints using JIRA tickets. I maintained the main web application, added features and handled translations and internationalization.

I am interested in applying good design and user experiences and interactions. I would like to work in a company that places importance on design. I am reliable and am able to work independently, with more emphasis on doing than talking. I can be proactive in suggesting improvements.

In my free time I learn foreign languages, volunteer for beach cleanups and bring my dog for walks in nature. I moved from my home country Singapore to Austria with my husband in 2020.

GoT-books-to-series screenshots

GoT Books to Series

While proposing projects, this idea was rejected by editors for low audience to effort ratio. Thus Alyssa and I decided to create it on our own.

We watched every episode and took screenshots and duration timings for the barcharts, and referred to a fanpage as well as read the first book for the differences between the books and the series.

With google analytics tracking and promotion on various sites like Reddit and Flowingdata, it has garnered more than 15,000 page views to date.

Created with VueJS, D3

Built in March 2019 (For the season 8 premiere)
