Hi, I'm Dan Philibin. I make websites.
I'm a front-end developer at heart, yet in my 11-year career I've handled a wide range of jobs that include design, backend & mobile development, product design, project management, and copywriting. I'm most passionate about creating useful tools & amazing user experiences; that part has never changed.
I live in Los Angeles, CA and currently work for Brooklyn-based Thought Catalog.
Previously:
- Fixel, a Salem, OR-based agency, where I worked on WordPress themes, marketing sites, subscription services, & a wide range of other work
- Dashing Dish, a healthy recipes website, where I developed a subscription service that includes recipes, a grocery list tool, a meal-planning tool, and an iPhone app
- Gamers Outreach, a non-profit that builds portable gaming karts for hospitals, where I built a fundraising platform that allowed fans & streamers to raise money to build GO-Karts
Before that:
