Joel Schou is a senior front-end consultant based in Minneapolis with eight years of professional experience crafting fast, accessible, and visually polished web interfaces. He combines a strong graphic design foundation—HTML, CSS, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign—with hands-on front-end leadership at BI WORLDWIDE and current work in a Modern Front-End Practice, and has run his own design studio and art practice for two decades. Joel brings practical UX sensibility to engineering, having led front-end teams, designed complex platform UIs, and contributed to API work when projects required full-stack understanding. Outside of code, he channels the same visual rigor into acrylic painting, a creative pursuit that informs his aesthetic-driven approach to interface design.
