Chandra Nalaani is a Web Designer/Developer currently working as a full time Front End Web Developer in downtown San Francisco. She moonlights as a Bay Area consultant to keep things fresh.
The more tools you have in your toolbox, the easier it is to find the best solutions, solve problems creatively, and take on new challenges fearlessly. Chandra is a true hybrid in almost every sense of the word, at home in the space between art and technology, logic and creativity, the up-front and behind-the-scenes. She can design and code entire sites from scratch or build existing comps down to the pixel.
With a solid fine arts background, years of focused digital media training, and over six years of continuous hands-on professional experience in the field, she's the perfect person to have around when you need something done right. Most of her freelance and consulting clients have been start-ups, nonprofits, and small businesses focused on social consciousness or positive impact in some way—she likes feeling good about what she does.
Aside from being an avid reader, lifelong learner and multimedia artist, she spends her free time organic container gardening, playing Texas Hold'em, pool, chess, and hanging out with good people.
