I perform many tasks for this Drupal development firm. I manage all design and marketing solutions for our major client, OmniBox. I have designed, or assisted in the design, of several major websites, as well as assisting in the recent redesign of their personal brand. I manage an intern who assists me with the print responsibilities for OminBox. I also advise on responsive web design to the many developers there. Occasionally, I write CSS and brainstorm interaction design for their projects as well.

I designed and developed the front end of their product, a job search application for college students looking for part-time, full-time, and internship opportunities. We went through several revisions, a seed round of funding, and user testing. We brought 2 full versions to market. I also did website design and front end development for a marketing website for them. I also assisted the marketing department in creative solutions for their strategies, both print and web.

I completed branding for the early startup, as well as beginning to working on early versions of the web based application. I completed several revisions of the application as well as took on major marketing and print design responsibilities. I did all of this working part time while working another job and in school full time. During my time here, I began learning front end languages.
