OSU Small Farms Workshops

Designed a new dynamic web portal for Oregon State University's new Small Farm Workshop Series, empowering the local citizenry with the knowledge and resources to start their own small, local, organic farms.

The design is still in its initial stages, and I've only uploaded the front page of the site but both OSU and I are loving the direction it's taking - check it out!

CASIO Education UI

CASIO just launched a slick new calculator they hope will transform High School Math classrooms across the country. With a calculator this radically new, however, they faced an uphill battle training Math Educators to use all the new features. To this end, I came in.

I worked with CASIO to develop an attractive, intuitive new user interface (UI) and web portal for their eLearning Resources, while matching the look and feel of their current branding.

Stroke Awareness Module

For Stroke Awareness Month this year, Providence Health and Services asked me to develop a training module to ensure all of their 80,000 employees would know how to react, should they ever encounter someone suffering a stroke. This was one of my first experiences playing the dual role of designer AND voice-actor. Forgive the poor vocal performance.

Clicking the link below will launch the SCORM compliant eLearning module. You will be prompted to enter a name and email address... don't worry, it won't be used. Feel free to make something up if you like.

General Plastics Site Redesign

I was tasked with re-imagining General Plastic's website utilizing modern design trends, interactive social features, and a mobile friendly interface. All while maintaining the unique colors and style of their internationally renowned brand.

They haven't yet transitioned from their legacy site, but you can get a full-screen view of the mockup here, and compare it to their existing site.

Student Apps Deployment

After managing a successful pilot program with select students and staff, I directed a campus-wide deployment of Google Apps for the college.

All staff and students now have unlimited storage for their @ACHS.edu college based email, web and document hosting needs, as well as project collaboration tools that come fully integrated into their coursework with the college.

As part of the deployment, I re-branded Google Apps to uniquely reflect the color, feel, and spirit of the college.

Online Training Course:
Preventing Sexual Harassment

My first contract with TransPerfect was to develop a short online sexual harassment course to use for marketing purposes. But rather than use the traditional Flash based platforms (such as Articulate and Captivate), they asked if I could develop something lightweight, quickly deployable, and mobile friendly.

So, I developed a brand new rugged platform for use in future projects. Built with strict HTML, CSS, and Jquery.

Site Redesign: ACHS.edu

Completely redesigned the website of The American College of Healthcare Science. Their existing website was designed in 2003, and was long overdue for an overhaul. As an accredited college, there were a number of strict rules to follow in regards to website design.

A quick survey of students and alumni found they loved the new look and feel. You can catch a peak of the new site below, featuring hundreds of unique slide and header images, which should give you a sense of my visual style.

TransPerfect eLearning Portfolio

Developed a small portfolio of eLearning samples for TransPerfect / Translations.com to better showcase their teams past projects. They requested a simple, lightweight, and easily updated slider page.

Facebook Interactive Landing

The American College of Healthcare Sciences asked me to design them an interactive landing page on facebook for potential students. The page is an informational hub, pointing to the most relevant college data online. Until a potential student "likes" ACHS, this is the interactive landing that greets them.

This design features unique graphical styling, and interactive rollover image links. One of several custom Facebook projects I've completed in the past year.

Chillits Design 2011

Chillits is a small music festival that attracts the best DJs from around the world to camp together and perform in the Northern California forest each year. For the past two years I've volunteered to do their ticket, tshirt, and poster design work.

Check out a favorite track from the festival below:

Chillits Design 2010

This was the first year I reached out to volunteer with the Chillits team. The Cloud Factory Collective publishes the tracks from the festival each your online for free, and I find design work to be much more enjoyable with their chill ambience playing in the background.
