For over fifteen years, I have been immersed in web technologies, first experimenting with HTML programming in the mid-1990s, before moving on to PHP, MySQL, Java, and AJAX. Over those years, I've developed literally hundreds of websites and web-based applications. From the artist looking for an online portfolio to showcase her wares, to a company trying to unite their billing and client management functions under a unified interface, to web-based magazines and subscription management tools, I have the demonstrated experience necessary to tackle most projects. What unites all of these projects, though, is a commitment to the individual--a commitment to work with you, to learn from you, and to use the tools at my disposal to create the website or web-based application that tells your story.
![]() GRACIOUS EVENTSVesna Madunic, the incredible owner of Gracious Events, turned to me to construct a website that showcased her catering services. Incredibly, the website led to a new client calling in less than a day! I've completed similar sites such as Milwaukee Guacamole. |
![]() TWENTY SIX LLCAs a smaller design and programming firm with a commitment to the individual, Twenty Six LLC turned to me for a website that presented a corporate, yet accessible image. I've headed similar projects for companies like GEM Manufacturing and Fuhrman Insurance. |
![]() POWER UNDERGROUND, INC.As a new non-profit, Power Underground, Inc. needed a website that would appeal to their donors and be integrated with their credit card processor. Incredibly, they received their first donation through the site less than three days after the site went live. |
![]() DEER CREEK RUNDeer Creek Run, a private apartment community near Waukesha, Wisconsin, turned to me to design a website that showcased the property, while providing digital sales tools such as virtual tours and online applications. Similar sites include The Cleaners and Maid Great. |
![]() URBAN ENERGYWith my beautiful wife, I started Urban Energy as an outdoor fitness program in Milwaukee. I designed the site to convey the energy of the group. I've designed a lot of unique personal portfolio sites including those for the artists Dick Hay and Diane Mann. |
![]() PLEASE BE LIVEMost recently, I developed, designed, and programmed a membership-driven website monitoring service. The system constantly monitors the uptime of a given website, provides immediate text alerts to outages, and handles subscriptions and payment processing. |
![]() WCONLINEUnder contract with WCONLINE, I design and program new features for WCONLINE--a completely web-based scheduling, recordkeeping, and reporting program. I've also programmed other web-applications including Daily Scheduling and Professional Stock Trader Live. |
![]() WRITING LAB NEWSLETTERFor five years, I have been involved with the Writing Lab Newsletter--one of two peer reviewed publications for the writing center community. I designed their website and created a completely web-based subscription and manuscript management system. |
![]() BOISE STATE UNIVERSITYBoise State University contracted with me to create a web-based course match system to help guide students into proper writing courses. I've done similar document management and ePortfolio web-based application development and design for Washington State University. |
![]() JOURNAL OF WRITING ASSESSMENTAfter closing for a few years, the Journal's editors contracted with me to help revive the publication. The site allows editors to solicit and review manuscripts, add new issues to the site, and manage subscriptions. |
Of all graphical and textual elements that an individual or business uses as part of their identity, the logo is the most important. The logo, using words, fonts, and graphics, tells your story in the most succinct and direct way possible. I've been designing logos and leading identity design projects that inspire and connect for well over a decade.
Once an organization has a logo, that logo becomes the driving force for the related collateral. With a demonstrable expertise in Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator, and with the experience that comes with fifteen years in the field, I am ready to work with you on your flyers, postcards, business cards, and magazines.
