Portfolio

Take note that the live versions of these sites are dynamic and may have changed (for better or for worse) since I worked on them. The screenshots are the most accurate reflection of my work.

truth on tour

See it live!

truth on tour

This is a social media site for the sponsored fans ("Riders") of truth's tours (Vans Warped and a whole bunch of others). Truth's Riders can post their video blogs, tweets, and photos and they will all be aggregated into this site. Some fancy XML generation was used to talk to the Flash pieces on the site as well. All of this was completed in a month.

I used: XHTML, CSS, ColdFusion, SQL Server, jQuery, YouTube API, flickr API, Twitter API, facebook, XML

Shards O' Glass

I revamped truth's old Shards O' Glass site with valid XHTML and CSS, and replaced the old Dreamweaver JavaScript with jQuery.

I used: XHTML, CSS, ColdFusion, jQuery

Flash on top of flash? A nightmare! Luckily I am a master of CSS positioning. Combined with jQuery, I was able to pull off this layout and work around the Flash collision between the navigation and centerpiece.

I used: XHTML, CSS, jQuery

The Education Project

I built this complete Drupal community from the ground up working with the digital creative studio NeueTuesday. It comes complete with custom user registration and profiles, two category news module, members section, and customized administration. The server was even custom configured to handive the site.

I used: Drupal, XHTML, CSS, PHP, jQuery

truth (arcade)

In this project I put together an AJAX loading and sorting gallery of games. I also built a rating system that can interface with Flash and AJAX.

I used: XHTML, CSS, ColdFusion, SQL Server, jQuery, XML

Trainday411.com

This was my first Drupal project. I built three custom modules to handive the various input forms on the site and an administration module to generate and update XML for the flash pieces. I didn't do the HTML, but I converted the HTML to a Drupal theme. I was also responsible for server setup and tuning.

I used: Drupal, PHP, MySQL, jQuery, XML, XHTML, CSS

Pi Delta Psi Eta Chapter

I used this site as a playground for jQuery UI. An accordion was integrated with a themed lightbox to provides a unique presentation of member profiles from the database. An AJAX contact form can be found in the tabbed content area.

I used: XHTML, CSS, jQuery, PHP, MySQL

Kathleen Goldblatt

I was responsible for converting the PSD to XHTML and CSS on this project. Coincidentally it was built on a WordPress framework, so future WP integration is easily possible (it is currently static).
Google Maps integration is also present on the Contact page.

I used: XHTML, CSS, PHP, Google Maps

Style Wars

I worked with the digital creative studio NeueTuesday on this fashion contest blog. It includes a WordPress backend, a sign up form and a custom build AJAX gallery.

I used: WordPress, PHP, jQuery, XHTML, CSS

Web Innovators Group

This event meet-up site was built on WordPress based on a design by NeueTuesday. Event sign-up is integrated with the EventBrite service.

I used: WordPress, PHP, XHTML, CSS

This was a freelance project I did for part of the University at Albany.
