I like working with small teams to imagine and implement meaningful online experiences. This portfolio is a smattering of some of my favorite gigs.

Asset Manager for CB Richard Ellis
CBRE reached out to EMC to help them design and prototype an asset manager. This was a short engagement (only four weeks), but I had free reign and they seemed to really value the plan I delivered. This was just one of a handful of screens I produced.
Conceptual Energy Manager for TDSP
It never fails – my best work doesn’t get to see the light of day. This concept was part of a response to an RFP at EMC. The project was terminated, though I never heard why. Probably something to do with the Google.
Promotional Website for VeriSign’s CORE Certification Program
VeriSign approached EMC to help them brand an internal training program. The goal was to emphasize that this program had personality and was going to be a game changer for the people who went through it. The minisite served as a launch pad to various training resources.
Promotional Posters for VeriSign’s CORE Certification Program
Along with the minis site, I got to design a logo and some promotional posters. All of the photography was done by yours truly.
Empowered To Connect Website
This website is one of the single greatest resources for parents with children from hard places. I love opportunities to work on sites with life-changing content. I hope to be a part of this project for a good long time. http://empoweredtoconnect.org
The Greenbelt of Mckinney Website
This one-pager is a lunching point to various housing developments focused on greener living. The Greenbelt of McKinney is an umbrella organization over the individual developments. http://greenbeltmckinney.com
Ghost Giving Website
An acquaintance asked me to make this site for him. The premise was that a person could give an anonymous gift to someone and attach a note that simply read “GhostGiving.com.”
SC21
I collaborated with another Front End Developer on this website and the client ended up changing the design considerably. You can google them if you want to see the final design - I’d rather you remember this one.
Tapestry Logo
A logo for a ministry to Adoptive and Foster Parents at Irving Bible Church.
The Village Foster & Adoption Ministry Logo
My wife and I lead the Foster & Adoption Ministry at our church. Being a designer and such, I drew up this logo for it.
A tiny style guide for Jeff Adams’ identity, TinyFly
Front End Developer extraordinaire, EMC cohort, and friend, Jeff Adams traded services with me for this identity work. He took some coding of my shoulders and I helped him out with some branding. Win, win, win.
