Sole   May 2011 http://soledancestudio.com involvement: design, code status: online

This gave me the pleasure of working with my beautiful wife on the face of her business. After establishing a a logo and site design, I built a standards compliant site that should look good across browsers and platforms. This website is actually a Ruby on Rails application at its core, for which we have some very cool plans for in the future :). Please keep checking back to Sole for updates! I love you, Les!

Riverhill School   December 2009 http://riverhillschool.org involvement: design, code status: online

This has been a particularly fun project for me. For some time, I had wanted to get my hands wet with XHTML and CSS. Of course, ever since I started working on websites I have been using HTML, but as you can see from my past works, it was used more to encapsulate my Flash projects. This project has really given me an opportunity to broaden my skill set. Check it out in the XHTML validator! It should pass with flying colors. As you can see from this very website, I'm starting to focus my attention on XHTML, CSS, and AJAX. Look for some Ruby on Rails goodness soon to follow :).

OTHDSN / Otra Design / Jozias Dawson   November 2007 http://othdsn.com/OTHER2007 involvement: code status: depreciated

Jozias and I won an FWA for this thing :). Took us long enough to finish. This is probably my all-time favorite site. It's a little crazy, but it was a lot of fun, and it is completely dynamic. All the background elements are random.

Natalie Brunet   October 2008 http://nataliebrunet.com involvement: code status: depreciated

Put this quick site together for my good friend Natalie. This is really my very first stab at a standards-based website. Simple XHTML and CSS across three pages. It was a good learning process. If you have a need for a talented photographer, contact Natalie! She does great work, and she's a super person!
