Oh, hello there, nice to meet you!

I am Frank Jamison...

Front-End Developer • Full-Stack Thinker • Accessibility Advocate

Transforming complexity into clarity through thoughtful, accessible design.

About me

Hi, I’m Frank Jamison—a software developer and web designer with a love for clean code, practical solutions, and building digital experiences that feel intuitive from the first click. I come from a multidisciplinary background that blends computer science, information technology, and hands-on development work, giving me a flexible, well-rounded perspective on how modern websites and applications should be built.

My journey into tech began academically, studying computer science before earning a Master of Science in Information Technology with a focus on Web Design. From there, I deepened my skill set with a Graduate Certificate in Full Stack+ Web Development and a Web Development Certificate from UC Davis. That mix of structured theory and real technical progression laid the groundwork for what I do today: creating functional, accessible, user-friendly tools for real people.

Professionally, I’ve worked as an Associate Software Developer at Broadridge Advisor Solutions, where I maintained and enhanced web applications, optimized SQL-driven workflows, and modernized more than fifty website templates to meet WCAG 2.0 AA accessibility standards. I also developed internal tools that reduced processing time for support teams by over 50%, reinforcing my focus on efficiency and thoughtful backend design.

Today, I’m continuing to refine my development craft while also leveraging my background in education and problem-solving. I understand how to break down complex ideas, collaborate across teams, and build with clarity—habits sharpened through years of teaching, tutoring, and supporting diverse learners. Those same habits translate directly into how I approach software: purposeful, structured, and user-centered.

When I'm not translating ideas into code, I’m usually deep in a philatelic grading session (yes, vintage U.S. stamps are a thing of beauty), or rolling dice in a Dungeons & Dragons campaign—because even developers need the occasional saving throw.

Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to explore my portfolio and my GitHub to see how I bring together software development, design, and a lifelong curiosity for how things work.

Skills

Front-End Development

I create responsive, accessible, and user-centered interfaces using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern design principles. My focus is clean structure, intuitive layouts, and WCAG-aligned accessibility.

Back-End & Database Engineering

I build and maintain server-side logic, design database solutions, and optimize SQL-driven workflows. My experience includes developing internal tools, improving performance, and enhancing system efficiency.

Full-Stack Problem Solving

I approach development holistically—debugging front-end issues, refining backend processes, and improving overall system reliability. I prioritize scalable code, thoughtful architecture, and smooth user experiences.

Goals for 2026 and Beyond

My journey is shifting from teaching in the classroom to building tools and experiences in the digital world. I’m transitioning from a primary focus on education to a new career in software development, while continuing to serve students as a substitute teacher and specialized tutor. These are the goals I’m actively pursuing:

Career Transition: From Classroom to Code
I am actively shifting my career path from education into software development. My aim is to move into a full-time developer role where I can combine my strengths as an educator—clear communication, problem-solving, and patience—with robust technical skills in modern web development.

Zero to Mastery: Software Developer Career Path
This year, I am starting the Zero to Mastery Software Developer Career Path to build a strong foundation in front-end and back-end development. I will be focusing on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, version control, responsive design, and industry best practices, then moving into frameworks, APIs, and real-world projects. My long-term goal is to become a professional software developer who writes clean, maintainable code and ships useful, user-friendly applications. into frameworks, APIs, and real-world projects.

Ongoing Substitute Teaching in Hemet and San Jacinto
While I train for a new career, I will continue working as a substitute teacher for Hemet Unified and San Jacinto Unified School Districts. These roles keep me connected to students and the classroom environment while I transition into tech. They also give me a daily reminder of why clear explanations, structured thinking, and patience matter—skills that translate directly into software development.

Special Needs Tutoring with TutorMe Education
I will also continue providing one-on-one academic support to students with mild to moderate disabilities through TutorMe Education. This work keeps my focus on accessibility, differentiation, and meeting learners where they are—perspectives I plan to carry into tech by building tools and experiences that are inclusive, intuitive, and user-centered.

Graduate Studies and Credential Work as a Strong Foundation
My ongoing work toward my M.Ed. at National University and my California Single Subject Teaching Credential in Mathematics has shaped how I think about learning, growth, and structured problem-solving. Even as I move into software development, this background provides a powerful foundation for writing clear documentation, breaking down complex concepts, and collaborating effectively with others.

As I move forward, my path is clear: continue supporting students through substitute teaching and tutoring while building the technical skills needed for a career in software development. The setting may change—from classroom to code editor—but the mission stays the same: to solve problems, empower others, and keep growing.
