Riley Sims is one of the most dedicated, hard-working, and empathetic workers I have had the opportunity to work with.
As a skilled Web Developer, Riley brings many skills to the table. She has advanced knowledge of building and maintaining websites (including WordPress), performing SEO audit and updates, SEO keyword research and planning, website reports, hosting server maintenance, troubleshooting issues, and incredible programming skills (HTML5, CSS3, Javascript).
I am fortunate to have worked along side her as a Project Manager, and Riley always had work ready on time and under budget. When questions or conflict arose, Riley was able to explain the issues and we found compromises or solutions every time. Without a doubt, Riley was the best team member.
She is also a friendly and empathetic co-worker, making her easy to work with. Riley learns quickly, has fantastic communication skills in breaking down a difficult concept into an easy explanation, and was incredible with internal staff and external clientele.
I have no hesitation in giving out a recommendation. I would hire Riley in a heartbeat to work on any website or digital project with me.

I cannot express how much I recommend Riley Sims be a part of your team. I have had the pleasure of working with Riley over the years at CR Creative Co, both as a mentor and a peer.
Her duties included building and maintaining websites, troubleshooting errors or code conflicts, performing SEO audits as well as providing reports and training to clients. During her time at CR, she excelled at her given duties. She was capable and very self-sufficient. Riley was always eager to continue her training in both front end and back end technologies.
As a mentor to Riley I can say that she took criticism and suggestions well and was able to adjust to our processes quickly.
I feel that Riley would make an excellent addition to any team who is willing to have her.

Riley completed tasks with efficiency. She was able to adapt and learn new techniques quickly. She worked with the other developers on the team to build new, cutting-edge websites. She also met and worked with clients to determine the best solution to meet their needs. Using WordPress, Shopify and other platforms, Riley created both visually pleasing and easy to navigate websites that encouraged user conversions.
Riley was also incredibly flexible, and was willing to learn and perform SEO tasks, and provide support wherever needed. She had a solid understanding of how the user navigates a site and how to boost conversions on a webpage.
Riley proved to be a quick learner, who put time into learning new software, techniques and skills, such as taking on SEO responsibilities, going above and beyond to help the company and her colleagues. She worked hard every day she came into work, with a good attitude.
