Web design & development portfolio.
O'Berry Collaborative
We needed to redevelop our site after an internal rebrand to better identify our design methodology and thought leadership to clients. After evaluating several frameworks and content management systems I choose to develop the site using the Django framework for the speed of development it provided as well as its ability to seamlessly integrate the disparate pieces of the site.

Clarisonic
I lead both the front and back-end development of Clarisonic’s international e-commerce websites and promotional microsites for three years while at O’Berry Cavanaugh. I worked with their internal marketing team and IT staff to design and develop technical solutions for promotional events, internationalization, product registration, mailing list acquisition and email distribution.

72ppi
72ppi is a photoblog that I created to take advantage of digital photo publishing before Flickr or Picassa had gained mainstream popularity. I redeveloped the site in PHP in 2008 after hacking at and extending an off-the-shelf blogging platform for many years. The new system made it significantly simpler to comment on photos, introduced a new hackable URL architecture, tagging, geo locations, and generally attempted to promote user exploration and discovery.

The Main Street Gym
Bozeman’s Main Street Gym is not your typical meat factory. The owners maintain an inviting atmosphere and focus on training one-on-one with their clients. As we designed the Web site we focused on this differentiation — referencing the trainers and the gym through the aesthetic stylings and langauge of the site. The effect of this was twofold. The gym achieved higher search engine rankings for relevant keyword phrases and prospective members were able to better understand the gym’s unique focus.

Tamara Faust Thai Bodywork & Yoga
I worked with Tamara Faust to design an identity and Web site for her Thai Bodywork & Yoga business. The aesthetic of the brand references the history and culture of her practice and its Eastern origins as well as her own personality and values. The site was built on a small custom Content Management System allowing her to edit and manage the information while at the same time maintaing a semantic and search engine optimized structure.

Kosha Yoga
I worked with Savannah Barnes to create a consise single page website for her Yoga instruction practice, Kosha Yoga. The Web site was designed to convey her personality and individual approach to Yoga to new clients in the Bozeman and Big Sky area as well as to provide a means for her to communicate upcoming classes and workshops to her students.

IMDS
O’Berry | Cavanaugh designed a new website for IMDS that merged together several division’s subsites under one roof and name. I helped to translate the new look and feel of the brand onto the Web and was responsible for the production and deployment of the site. The site was built on the ExpressionEngine Content Management System, allowing complete client control of the language of the site as well as the ability to add new content down the road.
