    Acted as lead developer on complete redesign and overhaul of hospital website as they transitioned to an umbrella health organization.

    We used WordPress as a CMS to provide a user-friendly experience for the non-tech-savvy content administrators. Heavy use of custom fields allowed us to provide places for lots of custom editable content while preventing design creep.

    The entire project took nearly a year to complete, and involved cutting a many-thousand-page website down by a factor of ten to allow for future growth in a much more organized fashion.

  • DQP

    I worked as lead developer on an informational site for the Degree Qualifications Profile, a joint project between the Lumina Foundation and the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment (NILOA). The primary goal was to present the concept and overview of the project in an easy-to-understand fashion, while still providing a depth of resources and information if the user dug deeper.

    We were able to create a simplified front page that presented easy entry points into the site, as well as a variety of introductory materials to make clear what the DQP was. WordPress has allowed the client to maintain and update their own site with minimal style and content bloat.

  • Lumina Focus

    This spring, I was the sole developer for creating a WordPress publishing tool for billion-dollar education policy foundation. For the last six years, they have been using a custom MVC PHP framework, and we aided their transition into the era of responsive designs and ability to manage their own content.

     

  • WooCommerce Casket Store

    WooCommerce Casket Store

    I was the sole developer for the online storefront for a cremation products vendor. We quickly settled on WooCommerce as the most robust e-commerce platform, and though the designers based their design on a commercial theme, we quickly decided that the custom functionality would require us to create our own, while starting with the theme as the basis for our code.

    The store handles around $20,000 of sales per month, with multiple managers handling sales and customer processing.
