I developed this microsite for Yahoo!, code name Yahoo! Hilton. It's a directory of Hilton hotel locations with Yahoo! branding. The microsite had to render perfectly across the following browsers: Safari 3+, FireFox 2+, IE7, IE6. I had a budget of 8 hours to complete this site. A PHP script randomly rotates the background image.

This was another purely front-end development project for Humana's dental plans. YUI was chosen as the JavaScript library of choice. YUI is great for animation, but not a great choice for sites that require a lot of validation. The requirements specified that the interface had to render correctly across Firefox 2/3(Mac/Windows), Safari 3+, IE7, and IE6. A considerable amount of time was spent ensuring that all required browsers rendered the interface perfectly. I originally used the Suckerfish technique to create the top navigation menu effect; however, this proved to be a brittle solution so I used YUI's Menu module instead.

Atreus Homes is a large real-estate company with offices mainly in the South East and South West US. I created a Google Maps widget that allows users to get customized directions to any Atreus Homes location. Users can add multiple destination routes which are plotted on a Google map as they are selected. The popup is an AJAX widget that receives longitude and latitude coordinates from a back-end Ektron CMS.

This project was a purely front-end development task for Emory University's Creativty & Arts Center. No Javascript interactivity was required. The designer I worked with created a beautiful interface; however, the university decided to make some of its own visual tweaks to the interface.

This project was a revamp of Estee Lauder's IT employee intranet. The use of a JavaScript library was not allowed for this project, so we did the JavaScript raw. An employee carousel animates the Employee Information page.

This site is a complete overhaul, both front-end and back-end, of the UPS media portal. JQuery is used to enhance the UI, and plugins were used for the Media Carousel and form validation. I've been working with several Software Engineers to integrate the front-end interface with Vignette CMS.

This project involved the creation of a restyled consumer-facing front-end interace, and back-end CMS interface. I worked with another Software Engineer to mesh the front-end with a .NET back-end CMS system created from scratch. JavaScript was not required for this project; however, I used TinyMCE to allow UPS employees to easily edit and update content.

This project was a revamp of Pepsico's Diversity & Inclusion Vignette portal, an employee intranet for Pepsico employees. Three interfaces were created, and YUI was used for all enhanced UI effects. I created 4 different style-sheets to allow Pepsico to change the color theme on the fly. The biggest challenge on this project was integrating the front-end with Vignette, which produces non-standard markup.
