A passionate web developer and digital designer with a love for creating meaningful digital experiences that make a difference.
I'm Conor Parle, a Web Developer and Designer currently working at Initiate Digital. With a 2.1 Honours degree in Creative Computing from SETU Waterford, I've developed a unique skill set that bridges the gap between beautiful design and functional development.
What drives me is the entire creative process—taking a project from the first sketches and wireframes in Figma all the way to a live, high-performance WordPress site using tools like Elementor or Breakdance. I thrive on solving complex problems and finding elegant solutions that work for both users and businesses.
Currently, I'm expanding my expertise with a Professional Diploma in UX Design from the UX Design Institute, focusing on user research and creating truly intuitive interfaces that solve real problems.
Managing the end-to-end migration of over 50 client websites from Flywheel to Cloudways. Designing and prototyping user-focused websites using Figma. Building out full brand identities and marketing materials using Adobe Creative Suite. Developing and maintaining responsive WordPress sites using Elementor and Breakdance.
Designed digital advertisements for major local developments including Brooksfield, Knightswood, Lisduggan Shopping Centre, and Summer City Apartments. Created compelling visual content that effectively marketed residential and commercial properties.
Managed day-to-day operations of the online shop, handling everything from accurate product uploads and pricing to tweaking SEO and metadata to improve search visibility for DIY supplies on Google.
Worked closely with the Brand Manager to design a comprehensive presentation for the postal service 'Swiftway' using Adobe Illustrator. Gained valuable experience in brand-aligned design within a fast-paced tech environment.
Split time between print and web design, creating marketing posters for the brand and maintaining their WordPress website. Developed skills in both digital and traditional design mediums.
Currently upskilling to sharpen my user research and wireframing skills, focusing on how to design sites that are truly intuitive and solve real user problems. Industry-recognized certification in human-centered design principles.
Built a strong foundation through comprehensive modules including Mobile App Development (Kotlin), Web App Development (JavaScript), Software Engineering principles, SQL and NoSQL Databases, and Computer Security. Developed both technical and creative problem-solving skills.
Every pixel matters. I take pride in crafting polished, refined work that stands up to close scrutiny.
Design should solve real problems. I always keep the end user's needs at the heart of every decision.
Well-structured, maintainable code is the foundation of great web experiences that last.
Technology evolves constantly. I'm committed to growing my skills and staying current with best practices.
Every challenge is an opportunity. I approach problems with creativity and find elegant solutions.
I deliver work I'm proud of. No cutting corners—just thoughtful, professional results.
When I'm not designing interfaces or writing code, you'll find me exploring new technologies and experimenting with creative tools. I'm particularly interested in the intersection of AI and design—using tools like Google AI Studio to prototype and create innovative digital experiences.
Based in Ireland, I'm always open to connecting with fellow designers, developers, and creative thinkers. Whether it's discussing the latest web technologies, sharing design inspiration, or collaborating on interesting projects—I'd love to hear from you.
