Experience Highlights

BCG

BUILDING CONTROLS GROUP Technologies used for the Building Controls Group project: Shopify: We used Shopify as the main platform for building the website, leveraging its powerful e-commerce features and functionality. Fishbowl: We integrated Fishbowl, an inventory and customer management system, with Shopify to ensure that the website was up-to-date with the latest product information. AWS: We utilized Amazon Web Services to store and serve product images, as well as PDF instructions for the products, ensuring that the website loaded quickly and efficiently. Boilerplate theme: We started with a boilerplate theme as a foundation for the website, which allowed us to save time and effort while still building a customized, high-quality website for Building Controls Group. Custom Shopify theme: From the boilerplate theme, we made a number of custom edits and modifications to create a fully customized theme that perfectly aligned with Building Controls Group's brand and aesthetic. This involved working closely with the client to ensure that every aspect of the website met their specific needs and requirements. By using these technologies and leveraging our expertise in Shopify development, we were able to create a top-quality website for Building Controls Group that met all of their needs and exceeded their expectations. Our attention to detail and commitment to delivering the best possible product allowed us to create a website that truly reflected the client's brand and mission.

Greenpeace USA

Technologies used for Greenpeace USA Greenpeace.com/USA leverages the popular Wordpress platform with the Timber framework to provide an efficient and scalable solution for its online presence. ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) is utilized for every page to provide an intuitive and user-friendly editing experience for non-technical staff members, allowing for easy reordering of sections on the site. A locked-off, private photo site is also in use, granting Greenpeace staff access to a rich library of images for use in promoting their environmental message. OptinMonster is the ad serving technology of choice, helping to increase conversions and drive engagement with site visitors. The site also includes a private section for high-level donors, complete with a newsletter and other resources to keep them engaged with Greenpeace's mission. Donor information is stored on Greenpeace's servers in Germany, and tags are used to ensure that access to certain pages is limited based on donor status. The site's SEO and marketing are also optimized through ongoing fixes and enhancements, ensuring that the site remains visible and relevant to its audience.

Shopify Golf Site

Developed WedgewoodGolf using Shopify and the Dawn theme, as per client's request to resemble their old Wordpress site with Woocommerce backend Implemented a customized hotspot image mapper for the golf club section, utilizing Jquery and the image due to the lack of available plugins supporting the desired features Addressed the challenge of Shopify's default bulk order format by utilizing Javascript and Jquery to create a custom add-to-cart function and separate item display in the cart Utilized a multi-item plugin and Jquery to facilitate the add-to-cart functions and hide/show buttons based on product compatibility with certain options

Logo Design Silky Seams

The client needed a logo for their company's website. I went through a few renditions based on their preferred colors, what they wanted to convey, and what branding they were using the logo on. I wanted to give them perfect readability no matter the medium.
