What do you do?<\/h4>\n<div>Spokeo takes design seriously, and my job is basically working with our Design and Frontend teams to produce and maintain a bespoke UI framework. This includes not only defining site-wide styles, but enforcing the appropriate use of those styles to maintain our design integrity. Every project includes considerations for devices of any shape\/size, as well as for users with special accessibility needs.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Life before Spokeo:<\/h4>\n<div>I worked at an ad agency in Manhattan Beach building interfaces and promotional experiences. My projects were pretty dynamic, but towards the end I mostly worked on popular video game franchises.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Most interesting Spokeo Project:<\/h4>\n<div>Advanced Filters! We&#8217;ve done a lot of work to improve our search experience, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/compass\/spokeo-introduces-advanced-search-filters\">Advanced Filters<\/a> project required collaboration between the Product, Design, Backend, and Frontend teams. The result of that work is a robust tool that allows users to narrow their search with useful parameters (such as age and location). We know users love it, so we&#8217;re actively working to improve the experience and help them find the exact person they&#8217;re looking for. Updates are coming soon!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Favorite Spokeo event ever:<\/h4>\n<div>Korean BBQ is a classic. These recurring dinners bring tons of people together, and the food\/drink is delicious.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Words of advice:<\/h4>\n<div>Don&#8217;t be afraid to voice your opinion. Interdisciplinary collaboration creates fundamentally stronger products, and shared knowledge allows teams to learn together.<\/div>\n<p>Interested in joining our great team at Spokeo?
