Hi, I'm Laur.

I'm a web and email developer with a background in technical marketing, a love for front-end design, and a passion for making code accessible and the user experience more inclusive. Nothing is more satisfying to me than bringing interesting and challenging layouts to pixel-perfect life—especially if they're colorful 🌈

(Baking a fresh batch of Asiago bagels is a very close second, though.)
