<h1 id="about-heading">About Derek L. Seitz</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I’m a freelance developer dedicated to building clean, functional, and accessible web experiences. But beyond the code, I’m someone driven by a deep sense of purpose and a commitment to creating digital solutions that <strong>genuinely</strong> serve people.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>My approach is simple: solve real problems and build with integrity. I believe great websites don’t just look good—they respect users’ time, adapt to diverse needs, and are built on a foundation of honesty and transparency. That’s why I communicate openly with clients, build trust through consistency, and deliver work that is both technically sound and thoughtfully designed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Accessibility is a Core Value</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Accessibility isn't just a buzzword for me—it’s a core value. From the start of any project, it’s built into my development process. I aim to align my work with the <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA</a>, and I continuously review my practices to improve usability. By championing accessibility-first development, I ensure my work reflects my values of inclusivity and mutual respect.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Driven by Curiosity and Empathy</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>What truly drives me is an insatiable curiosity. I'm a critical thinker with a passion for understanding the world—whether through my work or my personal interests. From earning a recent Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology to conducting research for a master’s program, I’m always looking to grow. I believe this analytical mindset, paired with a strong sense of empathy, helps me not just understand a client’s vision, but also the people and purpose behind it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>A Real Partner, Not an Agency</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I’m not a faceless agency—I’m a collaborative partner. My business is built on shared success and a belief that transparency, empathy, and high standards can coexist. When you work with me, you’re not just hiring a developer. You’re gaining a partner committed to bringing your unique vision to life—<strong>ethically</strong>, <strong>effectively</strong>, and <strong>accessibly</strong>.</p>
