I have been working in the industry for four years, freelancing with small businesses, bands and individuals to design and program economical e-commerce websites that fit their needs. My expertise in graphic design also extends to brochures, business cards, book covers and flyers. I recently finished designing "Divine Images" by Kati Russell (which will be published in 2009) and the cover for "Transcending Illusion" by Thea Ivie. (expected out sometime this year) I am very experienced in HTML and CSS. I've also worked with Javascript, PHP and Macromedia Flash. I program my pages in notepad (or notepad++,) and although i'm experienced in Microsoft Front Page and Dreamweaver I prefer not to work with them so I can write my code from scratch; that way I avoid any "filler" code those programs add. I am also certified by the University of Akron in SQL, Access Databases, and Visual Basic. I don't work directly with these often, but because of my certifications I can communicate easily with programmers of any language. I have a strong grasp on programming logic and understand how to incorporate those elements into a design. For design on the web I predominantly use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Designing for print, I mainly use Adobe InDesign and Illustrator. Other programs I have used frequently are Jasc Paint Shop, Corel Painter, and Adobe Image Ready. Please request my resume if you are inquiring about experience in a specific program. (they are not all listed here) |

Most Recent Projects: Rebel Girl Music Click Here to Visit This site was created for the band "Rebel Girl" and went live in September. It is a place for press and fans to go and get information about the band, as well as listen to their music, view their photos and download wallpapers. I designed the site which uses Macromedia Flash and coded it in HTML & PHP. > > > > > > > > > > Kati Russell's Angel Art Click Here to Visit This site is the brainchild of a fellow programming friend and me. He helped design the search engine and I developed the database which is fully controlled with SQL. All the photography featured on the site is mine as well as the design which I created specifically to compliment the striking abstract art. > > > > > > > > > > Bubba's Q Click Here to Visit This site was laid out/cut apart by a previous designer. I took over and made multiple tweaks to the design- (including the update boxes, photo galleries, additional side-bars and background) I have taken all the photography on this site, food, product and events. I am currently developing a new version using the liquid design to allow it to expand into branches as the business grows. (adding a catering sub-site, more extensive photo galleries, interactive menus, tv spots viewable online and new food photography) Stay tuned for version two! |
