Waldrons Farm

http://waldronsfarm.com

Waldrons Farm is a local Phoenix based nursery that serves the architect and developer community. They came to us looking to have a site that will highlight their work and is consistent with their position as a top tier B2B nursery. I am the developer on this project and responsible for all front-end and back-end development. I am working with a designer and marketing consultant. This site is currently in the final stages of development (though it is currently live) and is built using ExpressionEngine.

The site development and fine tuning is ongoing based on observations from volunteers, staff, and over 23,000 members.

TeresaVillegas.com

http://www.teresavillegas.com

Teresa Villegas is a prominent local hispanic artist and needed a site where she could easily manage the content (via a CMS, in this case we've adapted WordPress) and also sell prints of her work. The site is pretty much complete however there are some finishing touches that I am integrating to smooth out the user experience.

EaterAZ.com

http://eateraz.com

EaterAZ is a local food blog that runs on WordPress. I didn't do the design however did work with the designer to create a custom theme. Included in the theme is the ability for local restaurants to pay a subscription fee to post their menus and job openings to the site.

EaterAZ MailChimp template for RSS campaigns

View on MailChimp

EaterAZ wanted an easy way to promote itself on an ongoing basis. They were sending text emails whenever a new post was published on their site. I converted them to MailChimp and designed a template to be used by MailChimp's RSS campaign feature which makes a daily check for new posts and then wraps each post in the template. I also customized the WordPress RSS feed so that only the first image from each post is included and if a video is posted, a YouTube thumbnail image is fetched and overlayed with a YouTube play button so that readers know it is a link to a video.

Aeronautical.com

On Aeronautical.com I developed the content management system (CMS) that allows ASI's employees to manage all content on their site. I worked with a local agency on this project. This site is developed in ExpressionEngine.

Castle Megastore

The new Castle Megastore site was built entirely in ExpressionEngine. I was brought on board specifically to help get their complicated products and product categories working the way they were designed to work. This involved a combination of category gymnastics and custom SQL queries.

The Wolff Company

http://aeronautical.com

The Wolff Company approached me because they had a website that had been designed and developed exclusively in Flash. They wanted to keep the look and feel of their site however they wanted to be able to manage site content themselves. I created new HTML, CSS and javascript to mirror most of the look and functionality of their original Flash site, and used ExpressionEngine as the content management platform.

This site was designed by a local designer and I did all development, including designing and developing a content management system and integrating and customizing a shopping cart solution.
