Joel Morrison

Team Lead, Front End Web Development, CrownBet

Melbourne

Joel is a front end solutions specialist, who is passionate about applying cutting edge front end UI/UX solutions to deliver highly effective projects.

He has worked in the front end space for over 15 years experience in both public and private sectors in a wide variety of roles ranging from UI/UX design, middleware, API and database development through to infrastructure management.

Early on he worked in the infancy of E-Learning in Australia on projects for ANZ & RACV before moving to work for local government in regional Victoria. While working for local government, his split role of development and UI design peaked his interest in making both functional, and beautiful web solutions. This lead Joel to follow his second passion for design and completed a Bachelor of Arts-Graphic Design.

Leaving local government Joel worked freelance in Mildura and Bendigo creating online solutions for a range of companies, SME’s and community groups. This diversity of clientele gave Joel exposure to the ever changing web space across all facets of the web stack and the growth of front end technologies, and fuelled his passion for the ever changing front end technology.

Joel moved back to Melbourne in 2012 to work in the Wholesale travel industry for 2 years before joining CrownBet in November 2014 where he works today implementing high performance API driven web solutions.
