Below are some selected case studies out of 60+ completed projects from
my client work with Period Three over the past five years. My role
in all of them has been one of a Pathfinder - a hybrid of an Information
Architect (IA) / User Experience (UX) Architect / Digital Project Manager
(DPM) / BizDev / and Client's Best Friend.
Our client work approach is rooted in the Design Thinking Process - one
that first defines the problem, then implements solutions, all with the
different types of users and their needs at the heart of the design. At
its core, there is a bias towards action, creation and experimentation
- by creating and testing something, you can continue to learn and improve
upon your ideas.
Additionally, I also serve as co-editor / writer for unmatchedstyle.com,
a web design gallery in which we review 12-15 websites a week - and view
over 50 per week. I also help produce four to six web design and development
conferences a year: ConvergeSE (Columbia, SC / Jacksonville, FL) / FrontEnd
Design Conference (St. Petersburg, FL) / BDConf (Nashville, TN Washington
DC / Orlando, FL) / Grok (Greenville, SC).
Through the client work I've done with Period Three I've been able to
hone my skills as in UX, IA and DPM. Through the work I do with unmatchedstyle.com,
I've been able to develop a better sense for how websites should flow,
what is good, what is not so good, and how to fix it. Through the conferences,
I've been able to keep up with what trends are in the web design and development
community, and count many thought leaders in this industry as colleagues
and friends.
The example work below are shared under strict confidence, only for this
portfolio. Thank you.
