Hi, I'm Jackie, and I'm a front-end web developer at Behance.
I love the internet, I love making websites, and I love making a difference, which is all why I love working at Behance, the leading online platform for showcasing and discovering work, in beautiful New York City. CSS and Sass are my favorite things, and I lead Behance's extremely talented front-end development team with a strong focus on writing super clean, modular, extensible and reusable CSS, utilizing Sass, Compass, and some of our own frameworks as our primary tools for awesomeness.
I live in Brooklyn with my boyfriend, Brian and our cat, Ned. I love to ride my bike and eat food. Some day I hope to be internet famous.
I like to build things.
I get to build a lot of awesome stuff at Behance. But I am insatiable. Here are some things I've built in my spare time.

I like to talk and write.
I like to tweet. You should follow me @jackiebackwards. A lot of it is about CSS or web stuff. The rest of it is totally random.
Sometimes I contribute to the Behance dev blog. I should do it more.
In the past, I've written about super easy retina sprites using Compass for Web Advent 2012 and spoken at the NYC Sass & Compass Meetup. This year, I hope to speak at some conferences for the first time!
If you'd like to get in touch with me, your best bets are to email me or tweet at me. You can also find me across the internet via various links in the footer of this site.
