About Web Retool: Business and Technical Solutions Consulting.Responsibilities: Client Services / Strategist, Technical Recommendations and Hands-on Implementation on multiple projects using different frameworks. Audience segmentation, streamlined flows, budgeting, project management, create policies around technology infrastructure.Achievements: • Secured and retained several new high-end clients, including Honda/Acura USA, Razorfish and Wendy Williams Show and expanded the business;• Achieved Customizations in Luminate Online that were deemed impossible by Blackbaud, the licensors or the software (they later sought the IP that I produced). As an example: 180° change in registration flow for Joni & Friends – turned complaints into accolades with thanks for making the registration process so easy;• Aided in the conception, development and maintenance of Honda Helper, Honda Automobiles’ premier web app. Mentored and fostered learning among Developers. This solution had a dealer console that could view and scroll the prospect’s (buyer’s) phone in real-time, with both dealer and prospect using their browsers (web app) – no native app;• PlayStation: Conceptualized and realized personalized Intelligent Game Detail Pages (iGDPs). Standard, static GDPs had the same content every time -- integrating with PlayStation APIs to present relevant content depending on player’s experience with the IP – i.e. if they had trophies in the game, then the “buy now” button was redundant and would be replaced with a CTA for a DLC that they didn’t have, for example. Player’s game ranking would be show against friends. Ranking 2 out of 5 friends is way more engaging than a game ranking of “79,239” vs. all PlayStation Network Members.Clients: Joni & Friends, Debmar Mercury (Wendy Williams Show), Razorfish (Honda & Acura USA), Wondros: Carl Icahn, Evoxe Labs.
