Looks like you’re using an older browser or you've disabled Javascript. So much for all the flashy stuff I was going to show you.

Anyway, I'm Ramzi. I’m a web designer and developer, photographer, videographer, print designer, and more.

Currently I do front-end web development for Fitch Ratings (using Vue.js, GraphQL, Node, Atomic CSS). Previously, I was the web guy for Chicago magazine, and attended Northwestern University’s fullstack coding bootcamp on nights/weekends (learning React, Mongo, MySQL and more).

At Chicago, I did a lot of editorial web design, which won a national award from the City and Regional Magazine Association. Here are some examples (although you'll need to enable Javascript for some of the more fun stuff):

  • A Second City (design direction, interactive components, 2019 CRMA Finalist for Multiplatform Storytelling)
  • Welcome to Refugee High (video/interactive components, 2018 CRMA Finalist for Multiplatform Storytelling)
  • What’s in Their Fridge (3D transforms, SVGs, pseudo elements)
  • Spring Fashion: Pattern Recognition (SVG masking, lazyloading, custom scrolling)
  • Face of a Century (custom gallery with audio integration)
  • A Guide to Farmer’s Markets (photo deconstructed into flexbox components)
  • How to Buy Art (responsive design using viewheight units)
  • A Foolproof Guide to Finding the Best Beach for You (interactive quiz)
  • What Trauma Docs Know (CSS Grid, typography )
