Who is Christopher Wayne Jones

About Me

I am a motivated and versatile professional with a strong background in web development, digital marketing, and charitable work. Raised in a poor home by a single mother, I understand the challenges of struggling to make ends meet. My core value of helping people was instilled in me by my mother, and it drives everything I do.

My journey took a significant turn in December 2019 when my mom was diagnosed with cancer. I cared for her until her passing on July 2, 2021. This experience profoundly impacted me and motivated me to preserve her memories and honor the lessons she taught me by creating a lasting legacy. This legacy is focused on supporting families through grief and providing essential charitable services in her memory.

As a caregiver advocate, I have experience in supporting families through grief as well as experiencing it personally. My work experience includes roles at a memory care facility, where I firsthand observed the challenges of caring for patients with dementia and Alzheimer's. This, combined with my personal journey, has inspired me to dedicate my life to supporting others through compassionate support and practical guidance.

I am proficient in utilizing various software, including Adobe Suite, Microsoft Suite, RoomSketcher, HomeDesigner, EZ-Check, Blender, NetBeans, Visual Studio, Zoom, and TeamViewer. I am also skilled in digital marketing, web development, A/B testing, and client engagement.

Creativity: My passion for imagining new opportunities and designing concepts has been a strength since childhood. I consider myself blessed with this skill.

Tech Development and Marketing A/B Testing: My IT background in Front End Development and marketing expertise allows me to navigate the dynamic intersection of A/B testing for pages and advertising to optimize customer outcomes.

Educational Background:
