  • Created two web-based arcade games; one which I did the coding for, and another which I modified open source code and created artwork for.
  • Created a script for admissions to let them dynamically route emails to different addresses based on user input and still use our standard mail script.
  • Redesigned the Admissions website twice.
  • Created page banners, small advertisements, icons, buttons and a variety of other small web graphics.
  • Assisted multiple departments in making sure that content appeared and disappeared on time using PHP.
  • Trained professors, students and staff members on Frontpage, Sharepoint, WinSCP, Ungerboeck, and Cascade Server CMS, and provided continuing tech support.
  • Checked for plagiarism and wrote or re-wrote as needed, 200+ alumni biographies, and found or digitized photos for the 100+ alumni who did not have pictures.
