Web Development

My development services are intended for those seeking to bring a static design to life on the Web. Working from mock-ups, development prioritizes elements of responsiveness, interactivity, and animation to create a dynamic experience.

E-Bike Education

This site is an early example of my design and development skills from an assignment in my Advanced Web Development course junior year. I like to include this piece because it serves as a reference point as to how far my skills have come.

Steven Wayne Plouffe Band

This project was executed during my time as an independently contracted front-end developer for Custom100. Working with their design team, I was able to develop this simple landing page for a local band in dire need of a web presence.

About Me

Hello, my name is Sam Gruttadauria and I’m a freelance UI/UX designer and developer from Rochester, NY. In May of 2021, I earned my bachelor’s degree from St. John Fisher in Interactive Media. Within this vast program, I spent the majority of my time educating myself on creating web experiences that are not only beautiful in design but functional in form.

While earning my degree, I've worked as a service advisor at a full-service auto repair business. As a service advisor, it's my responsibility to decipher and translate detailed, technical diagnostic reports and convey them in laymen's terms to customers. Working as an intermediary between customers and technicians has exponentially grown my ability to communicate in an effective, efficient, and professional manner.
