A collection of my web design work over the past couple of years can be found below.
Rivalroo.com is a one of a kind web site that combines information on your favorite sports teams and lets participate in real-time conversations with other sports fans.
Puritan life called upon my services to re-vamp their mediocre web presence. They were running an out-dated and poorly implemented DotNetNuke site that needed a massive overhaul and brand new identity. A new look was created to properly represent the professionalism of the company. New sections of the site were developed to target two specific audiences: a "Products" section for customers who knew exactly what they wanted, and a "Solutions" section for those who were looking for answers general financial needs.
Special attention was also given to the Career section of the website to help boost agent recruitment, including placement of a promotional video, online applications, an agent testimonial section, and benefits to working at Puritan Life.
I served as the Web User Interface Engineer at Ingen Systems. While working at Ingen, I took part in the development of dozens of DotNetNuke drivin websites. Following is a small sampling of the sites I created with the Ingen Systems team. My role in each site was slightly different but all included some mix of the following:
Worlds of Wow a company that creates themed and play areas for church children's ministries. They hired me as a freelance web designer to create a new website for them. Their goal was to have a site that balanced professionalism with a children's entertainment look/feel. They also wanted a better tool to provide a showcase of their inherently visual product.
As the sole Web Developer for Al Boenker Insurance, I was responsible for creating and maintaining all of the web sites owned by the company. I still maintain the Boenker owned web sites through a monthly maintenance agreement.
This is the main public web site for Al Boenker Insurance.
I designed two web sites for Empower. The design for EmpowerIns.com (auto division) was an original creation. The Design for EmpowerBrokerage.com (health division) was based off of the look of their insurance software in order to maintain a consistent look and feel that their agents would be used to.
This is the auto insurance web site for Empower.

Most of my work at Sabre Holdings involved information architecture and turning Photoshop files into web sites. Most of the examples below use CSS for 100% of their layout (no tables). Some samples also make use of JavaScript and AJAX technology. All of the examples are very search engine friendly and standards compliant.
This is a fictional airline's home page that was created to demo a Sabre Airline Solutions Flight scheduling program.
This campaign involved making an HTML email, as well as micro-site. The email was designed to work on all of the most popular e-mail programs and links to the micro site.
