Toi W. Hutchinson is an Illinois State Senator and this site was developed working closely with her campaign team. Toi wanted to keep her site “informal” so that her constituents would feel comfortable communicating with her via the website. So, I kept the design low-key and “blog” feeling for a more personal and approachable feeling.
Intersect Media wanted a minimal site design which highlighted their extensive print and web portfolio. This site was developed from an Adobe Illustrator mock-up. The final site is table-less HTML and CSS, with a JavaScript slide show.
The Garlic Press is a fake news site. They were looking for a theme that would lend legitimacy to their project but be easy to use, allowing even the least tech savvy writers to self-publish.
Belize News Post is a leading news magazine providing the best of Belize news and resources for a great niche community. The theme for this site was only one part of the all web presence push for the magazine. A new identity campaign along with new accounts on social networking sites Facebook and Twitter topped off this marketing push.
Ron Rienstra wanted to do something different for an anniversary present. He decided that his wife, a well known christian author, could use a web site update but he lacked the technical skills to pull it off all by himself. I helped him set up the site, gave him some basic training in WordPress and set him loose.
AJ Wilhelmi is an Illinois State Senator and this is his personal site. The work I did for him was an update in design and functionality. Using his old design as starting point I took his site to the next level.
Joe Funk, President of Mojo-Media, works with niche audiences for blue chip clients. He needed a site update that would take his web presence to a new level. This was a re-design project aimed at updating an online brand identity and adding new, easy to manage features as well as an elegant and modern slide show for Mojo’s great portfolio.
InCUBATE (Institute for Contemporary Understanding Between Art and The Everyday) is a Chicago based art organization. They needed a way to manage their online content that was easy enough for all their members to use, and powerful enough to manage all their content in one place. Using WordPress as a content management system or CMS their new site fits the bill.
Sophisticate’s Hairstyle Guide is a magazine site with many interactive features: Polls, surveys, contests, and comments to name a few. All run seamlessly in WordPress.
One of three sites I did for Associated Publications, Sophisticate’s Black Hair & Style Guide is a custom content management system running WordPress. The theme was designed in Adobe Illustrator and converted into table-less HTML and CSS. In addition to designing and coding the site I gave the web staff at Associated Publications a tutorial on how to use the content management system.
