Information design for mobile & desktop Enthusiasm + experience.

In short, I plan, design and build websites for desktop and mobile. The diagram shown below is representative of the typical gestation process for a website. Of course not all projects are exactly the same, but in general any project will cover not just a few of the elements shown.

Development too.

I hand-code all my websites using HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery when necessary. I have worked with several content management systems and choose them based on the project’s needs. And if a certain CMS is requested I can almost always use that particular one.

That said, the majority of work I do for clients is creating the visual design in layered, static graphic files (Photoshop) and passing those off for development. I am very comfortable in this scenario and provide more than adequate instructions for web conversion. Also, since I’m a developer myself you never have to worry about receiving designs that aren’t transferrable to the web.

Presentations on web technologies & culture For your conference or company.

Educating

I am also available to consult or speak for your business, university, conference, etc. I’ve spoken on the process of creating a website, optimizing the same markup source for mobile, desktops and tablets and preparing a WordPress theme for release.

My presentations have been well-received and informative (or so I’ve been told).

Long live print!

Need a book designed? I am offering this service on a very limited basis as I explore this area more. I am proficient with Adobe InDesign® and I’m learning more about ePub and digital books. It’s a highly interesting space and one I’m very excited about.
