Portfolio

Freelance

This portfolio is actually a partial portfolio, in that some of my greatest and/or newest works are still pending client content or are group efforts currently moving towards launch. This portfolio will continue to grow and grow since I am currently pursuing freelance/contract work fulltime

90 Percent Gravity

Duh. Well I felt I should put this here because it's really my ongoing project and I'm doing everything from server setup and maintenance to hacking away at my cms and writing all the xhtml, css, and entries. The design and logo for my site are all thanks to Tim O'Connor, who until he gets his own site, can be contacted through me to get amazing design work from. The site is built upon Simplelog and runs quite beautifully on Slicehost.

Family Psychology of South Bend

This website was created on top of the open source publishing platform Wordpress. The theme code, including XHTML, CSS, and PHP were all my responsibility. This site is another beautiful example of design by Tim O'Connor. The project was overseen by Chas Grundy of Birch Lake Studios

Learning Masters

What I consider to be my first real freelance job, as I administrated as well as coded all the XHTML and CSS. They are a custom training developer. The web design and flash animation was done by Lynn Fellman

Notre Dame Web Group

Here is a list of some of the bigger projects I've had a large percentage of the responsibility for coding as a member of the Notre Dame Web Group. All design work was done by the amazing Jim Gosz unless otherwise noted.

ND Press

The Notre Dame Press site stands as my largest published Ruby on Rails site yet. Being lead developer on the project gave me the opportunity to learn a great deal about web application development, client relations, database configuration, and content management. It was a great opportunity to work with the ND Press and create a clean, updated, and easily maintainable site. Check it out, I am quite proud of it.

Admissions Chat

There was a need to create an application which allowed visitors to participate in a live chat with admissions during specified chat times. As lead developer, I created the app from scratch, did 90 percent of the coding, and it worked wonderfully. This was a great learning experience, very fast development, and definitely my favorite project to date.

ND.edu

The Notre Dame Web Group finally had the opportunity to redo the nd.edu website. Everyone did an amazing amount of work to get this site up. Jim Gosz, Tim O'Connor, and Noah Armstrong all put in design work on this site. I was responsible for a lot of different pieces of code throughout the site, but pages for which I was lead developer on are as follows:
