I specialize in User Interface design and development using XHTML and CSS.
I have been fortunate enough to be able to work with some spectacularly talented people and forward thinking clients. When I am not obsessing over code and design, I enjoy collecting vinyl art, watching movies, running, snowboarding, and hanging out with my Bernese mountain dog in the park. With that said, I will let the work speak for itself.

I was tasked with redesigning The Riverfront Park expression engine blog to reflect the new branding. This was a challenge since markup could not be edited. All updates were done through images and css.

MUNNY WORLD
Munny World is an online art customization contest. The primary goal of the microsite was to allow the contest to reach a worldwide audience. The microsite allowed users to purchase the customization platform and upload photos of the artwork for judging without the need for a physical store or location. In addition, it also promoted the brand's sense of community through embedded video featuring previous contest winners and allowed users to view and rate entries. Over 1,100 entries were uploaded to the site within the month the contest was open.
