Hi! My name is James Tettelbach-Whitehouse. (You can call me James TW; I do.) I live in Cincinnati, Ohio and develop great web applications that are beautiful and easy to use. Want to chat? Drop me an email!

Professional Work

  • Fifth Third Bank

    When Fifth Third Bank revamped their online process for applying for new accounts and credit cards, I led front end development. As a consultant, I contributed UX design, front end code, and a pattern library (or functional prototype) to allow them to expand the app in the future. Our user testing paid off—the new application process boosted signups, especially on mobile.

Personal Projects

  • Pokedraw

    A fun site that challenges you to draw a random Pokemon by hand (or by mouse) in only 45 seconds. To date, over 50,000,000 drawings have been created by millions of users from around the world. Pokedraw's success has taught me a lot about building a secure, scalable, rapidly growing website. It has been featured on Kotaku and by popular Youtubers Pewdiepie and Vinesauce.
