WagWorld
Read moreWagWorld was the first large scale Ajax-driven application I've worked on. The amount of front-end functionality, from using the Google Maps API to Ajax form-validation and submission handling, was staggering.
Because I had my hands full coding the JavaScript (using jQuery / jQuery UI), I led a team of three HTML/CSS coders who covered the majority of the buildout for the site. My time was split between managing my team and writing the behavioral code for the app.
I also enjoyed more creative freedom on this project than most others at Arc, which included being involved in the creative stage to contribute to interaction design.

Amana Color
Read moreAmana Color was a fun project- a heavily interactive two page microsite that I finished in one week. It had a mix of drag and drop functionality leveraging jQuery UI, some complex DOM manipulation, and a Web 2.0-ish feel.

SMF Studio
Read moreI coded the SMF studio for a freelance client front-to-back, working off of some design sketches. The site is powered by CodeIgniter / PHP5 / MySQL 5. This was my first foray into coding a dynamic, database driven website, and working with CodeIgniter helped keep my code in order and to abstract some of the complex form handling in the admin tool.

Fancy Feast
Read moreFancy feast was an interesting challenge because of the amount of dynamic text in Helvetica Neue. We elected for a sIFR solution that worked quite smoothly on all the product detail pages. The "Add to List" functionality was also a chance to do some Ajax interactivity, and there is other JS functionality peppered throughout the site - tooltips, etc.

Read moreThe Friskies Blog was an easy build thanks to a straightforward design style and no Ajax functionality.

Healthful Life
Read moreHealthful Life was my first large project at Arc. Initially a brochure site, it did have some interactivity courtesy of the Prototype JavaScript framework. Also my first introduction to working with the .NET platform.
