Web Developement

Web development is very competitive, you have to have a great site to really stand out, don't worry, I'm here to help.

As a web designer, I am happy to maintain and provide ongoing design of websites, promotional ads, and ad banners. I am skilled at combining graphic, textual and other elements of a site to create an appealing layout. I am becoming familiar with standard concepts, practices and procedures for developing websites. I will ensure consistency and quality in all creative design directions. I am also happy to perform regular maintenance checks and updates for content on the site.

Web Design

Graphics say a lot about your website. Childish graphics on a law firm site is not going to bring in business.

If you need graphics, I can make them. I am proficient in Adobe Photoshop™, Adobe Illustrator™, and am currently learning Adobe Flash™. I also am very good friends with an amazing graphic designer, with whom I am happy to give referrals. While graphics are a great thing, with web programming languages changing almost daily, it is possible to achieve a lot of looks with programming language, not only saving time, but making load times much faster.

  • The Twitter Family

    A fun take on the classic twitter icon, created in Illustrator.

    I found an amazing tutorial on how to create a "twitter bird." The tutorial exposed me to some tools that I had yet to use and really got me comfortable with the gradient tool. I had so much fun creating the first one, I decided to make a Twitter family. I used four different color schemes, one for each bird. These birds would be great icons, that's what they are made for.
