About me
My name is Cody Hopper. I’m a designer and developer based in the Appalachian mountains of Virginia. I’ve worked on websites, accessibility, and design systems for more than seven years.
Absorb design, write code
I help build bespoke, one of a kind content experiences at Happy Cog, a fully remote, full-service digital agency. My focus has been on user experiences supported by web accessibility, performance, and usability
Background
Creative coding became my passion while pursuing a fine arts degree in Graphic Design, where I studied design systems and creative problem solving.
Process
My process starts in the browser, scaffolding accessibility-first products and layering cutting edge CSS to drive up joy, engagement and value. I love working on projects that align with my interests in equal access, diversity and equality, and community engagement.
