Cap Gemini contracted me for 6 months to help redesign and build parts of their intranet. The original site was rather old, sprawling and lacked any semblance of uniformity. I concentrated on improving usability through colour coding, judicious use of type and a set of clear, constant templates. I also made use of Javascript on text heavy pages to hide and.

Globebyte contracted me to build a Flash application, which would demo a new piece of software called FoneSync. Due to the success of this project they kept me on to build a DHTML interface for WaveCast a web TV concept unveiled at the Millia show in Cannes.

Jackson Earle are a print based design agency, they contracted me to build a number of websites they had designed, most notably one for The Royal Society, I built 2 HTML and 2 Flash sites whilst there.

Worked on the SAAB site and the original TESCO home-shopping site before switching to Microsoft (www.microsoft.com/uk/). I led a team of 4 people keeping the Microsoft site up to date. This included organising the weekly refresh, liasing with the account handlers and the client when needed and understanding Microsoft’s internal propping procedures. After.
