The project has a lot of potential. This is the first flier of which I designed and wrote the poetry. Dr. Edmund Skellings, poet laureate of Florida, is the rock that binds this project together and I’m proud to be working with him to see it come to fruition.

What if the iPad actually changed the world? I’m all for it trying. Unfortunately it’s made in Flash so you won’t be able to view it on your iPad. Click the button and the world is your oyster. This project received several thousand hits the weekend of iPad’s launch. Inspired by eyeEvolve.

Flash site design and development that is fully searchable by Google and other text based search engines by using  SWFObject. The site was to marry and parallel the current print marketing materials.  Conceptually the site was designed with less is more in mind, in an attempt to peak interest and drive inquiries to the marketing office.

The Glenridge redesign was built on WordPress 2.8.4 and uses pages extensively versus posts and essentially uses WordPress as a true Content Management system.  Also, an older secure Members Directory was migrated over from ASP.NET to WordPress and has accomplished cross browser compatibility and much improved search capabilities.  View Project

25 Stop Lights was a project I made after realizing how many stop lights I had to endure on the way to work. So instead of detesting them I decided to take photos every time I stopped at one while looking through side view mirror. The project was put into a flash time-line and old family photos were collaged into the time-line. I often found myself daydreaming while at those stop lights and thinking about the past.

Simple flash portfolio for a copy writer I worked with while at SJP.com. The concept was to have it be a mix between Mystery Science Theater and The Office. In the first scene you are getting off the elevator at work then you can mouse over your coworkers to finally know what they are thinking. View Project
