Below are a handful of the websites I have worked on over the years.
I was the development lead on this project, with
FatEyes as the project manager and design team. I developed most of the php code for
this site and was responsible for creating the backend administrative tools, integrating third-party apps such WordPress and Sphider,
and much of the JavaScript functionality. This was a huge project due to the number of pages in the site and the numerous administrative
controls that were requested.
RevereWareParts sells replacement parts for vintage pots and pans made by RevereWare. The online store software has been customized fairly heavily to meet the client's shipping and product return needs.
Other features include a site-wide search module and search-engine friendly URLs.
DryAlert sells moisture sensors for plants/soil. The online store software has been customized fairly heavily to meet the client's shipping and product return needs.
This site was migrated to a Joomla back-end so the client can easily manage the content in the site
on their own. The exact layout and functionality of the original site was maintained, and all member
data was transfered into the new application without the members experiencing any changes.
Working with a team of developers, my roles included creating custom user controls, enhancing UI elements
and various programming tasks as necessary. This application uses advanced code to provide a cloud computing
management interface. This site runs Ruby on Rails and utilizes the Prototype and YahooUI frameworks extensively.
This investment firm needed a website that could aggregate as much information about a prospective lead as possible
and present the data in a user-friendly administrative interface. We were able to provide Alpha Titans the data-gathering
tools that they need while creating a simple and clean user experience.
This site was built from the ground up with Ruby on Rails. The site interfaces with PayPal's API and allows people to transfer money from gift cards into their PayPal accounts for a small fee. The site also implements some YahooUI elements in it's data validations.
This winery uses a program similar to the Sea Smoke and Melis sites (see below), but with further customizations and refinements. They already had a static/Flash site; I added
the online store. The store is available in both English and French, with different shipping options for U.S. and E.U. customers.
These wineries use a sophisticated program to determine product allocation to members based on the points they
have acquired. I have worked heavily with these companies to provide customizations and additional features to
their store fronts and back end management tools such as extensive shipping customizations and multi-language support.
Most of my involvement with this site entailed cleaning up the existing .NET code base and creating development tools
for the rest of the programming team. Ongoing programming tasks generally include feature enhancements and bug fixes.
This site was built with PHP/MySQL. The site has not officially launched yet, as it is undergoing a complete layout redesign. Interesting features in this site include a debate room, a blog for each member, user-submitted articles, advanced member profiles, and a messaging system.
Perpetual Bliss is my wife, Karen's, business. She created all of the artwork, layout,
and text, while I was responsible for creating the HTML, JavaScript and other code. This
site implements a JavaScript crossfade library, customized scrollbars within content pages,
dynamic content loading within sections, a lightbox implementation for viewing HTML content,
and a Google map.
My involvement on this site was the creation of the product detail pages and shopping cart. Using an existing shopping cart application, we heavily customized the application to integrate with 3D models that are generated on the fly using the SolidWorks API. Customers can select the specifications they need and preview the model live or download the model in multiple file formats.
This site uses a PHP/MySQL environment for a simple promotional site with a limited content management system and integrated Google maps. Plans to add an online shopping cart are forthcoming.
I created this using a purchased template that I modified to fit the client's needs, including color scheme and layout. I modified the site to dynamically update only the page content after clicking on any of the links. This prevents a reloading of the Flash header, reducing page load times significantly.
The client was operating under a tight budget, so with the use of a purchased template we were able to get the entire site renovated for less than $1000.

I created this entire site as a side project for myself. It includes a back-end
admin tool for managing the data that is submitted. The site never really took off,
so it is no longer in existence.
