About Me

Jess Varghese

Digital Media Professional | Front End Developer

I recently earned a certificate in full-stack web development from the UConn Coding Bootcamp where I developed skills in HTML, JavaScript, CSS, React.js, Node.JS, and responsive web design. As an innovative problem solver passionate about developing apps, with a focus on mobile-first design and development, I am currently looking for opportunities to combine my experience with my new skills in full stack development.

In my most recent role as an Account Executive for a physician healthcare marketing company, I managed the company’s portfolio of top hospital, medical device, and medical education clients and served as a key advisor in the implementation of their digital publishing platform and video content marketing strategy. In addition, I directed a cross functional team comprised of employees within our production, marketing, design, and development departments. Prior to my promotion to Account Executive, I managed all stages of production, produced live surgical webcasts, clinical round table discussions, and played a key role in editing web and video content for client websites as a senior video producer.

Outside of work and learning about web development, I enjoy spending time with family, my dog Herbie, traveling, cooking, reading non-fiction books, and going to live concerts.
