It's clear that I'm in my blue phase...
Web Design & Development
Offbeat Empire
IA, UI, Look & Feel, Graphics
Offbeat Empire asked me to redesign the popular Offbeat Bride blog. I provided a template that could be reused with the newer Offbeat Mama and Offbeat Home blogs. Even with no interest in getting married or having children, I LOVE reading Offbeat Bride and Offbeat Mama, and I'm all over Offbeat House for my wee apartment.

Jordan Publishing
(via Rawnet)
UI, look & feel, graphics
This was an intensive redesign of the Jordan Publishing website. With the help of some brilliant managing, I provided a new, more professional look & feel for the Jordans Publishing brand, created a consistent set of UI conventions to improve the readability of every page and reconceived much of the e-commerce UI and functionality to improve conversions.

Delve Networks
UI & interaction design
Delve Networks brought me in to deal with specific UI conundrums for their somewhat complex video management software. Honestly, I love this stuff. Don't worry about the sexy dummy content - I just used it to tease the dev team.

Be Academy
Pro-bono quickie rebrand and site clean-up.
It may be entirely unprofessional but I LOVE this little project. A few friends of mine moved from Seattle to Portland to start an alternative school with one-on-one teaching. I had to do something quick and I'm just really delighted with how it turned out, particularly the dual metaphors of clouds and a bridge over troubled waters.

Nearlyweds!
UI, look & feel, graphics, front end development, brand messaging and copy editing.
Nearlyweds! asked me to do a full redesign of their public-facing website (this constituted a "brand refresh" but like many startups, it was a quickie). The project was heavily look & feel, but also included some UI and conversion challenges.

Ameritocracy/ Insight App
Product, design, UI, UE, front end dev, branding, copy.
The Insight App allows readers to respond to small units of content on the web, providing an improvement over regular comments. Insight is the evolution of Ameritocracy, a company I cofounded.
Service has gone the way of the failed startup (but our founder is working on other exciting projects)
