Experience

Sr. Web Developer 2010 – Current
Worked with a team to redesign the university’s public and intranet sites to a responsive design with an incremental rollout and input from stakeholders (wire framing, usability and industry trend research, adapting pages for mobile, adapting CSS and graphics for backwards compatibility, multi-platform testing, page conversion, adjusting to stakeholder requirements, retraining staff), making it the only responsive site among service academies.
Created a PHP-based form processing script (validation, emailing, saving to .csv) which was customizable using only HTML and placeholder text.
Created a Social Media widget using PHP to bring social content into the main site, and a separate widget to bring in google calendar data.
Redesigned the homepage within the bounds of the interim design to modernize it, and worked with PAO to keep it up to date with fresh content.
Designed header and footer elements for the interim design.
Assisted with conversion of the old non-standard website into a standard PHP-based interim design template, then into Cascade Server CMS, and then into a responsive designed template inside of Cascade Server CMS.
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.
Created a dynamic timeline of USNA History, and later redesigned it responsively.
