Web Developer

Hi, thanks for checking out my portfolio!

Click any link below to surf a selection of sites I've built. This is a multi-site Code Igniter app. I built it to show you exact replicas of each original site — hosted right here on my domain. This enables me to show you my original work exactly as I built it without relying on screenshots or slideshows!

Please Enjoy!

To return to this page from any of these portfolio sites, press the P key.

This site is built on the CodeIgniter PHP MVC framework.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me through the site. You can also check out my blog for some interesting tips, tutorials, thoughts and ideas.

Celsius (hip-hop recording artist)

This is the official web site of Fat Boy Records recording artist Celsius. This site was built on PHP 5 / MySQL 5 and contains the following features:

  • Intro animation created in jQuery
  • Custom jQuery MP3 Player
  • Streaming video via the YouTube API
  • Mailing list application with integrated back-end
  • Custom jQuery Twitter Feed

Easy Expand() jQuery Plugin

This is a jQuery plugin that I wrote. It allows you to create accordion-like menus but doesn't limit you to expanding only one region at a time. It also has the following features:

  • Very light-weight (doesn't require jQuery UI library )
  • Easily create multiple expanable regions on the same page
  • Preset each element's default state to opened or closed on load
  • Clean, simple CSS
  • Use the default class names or pass your own class names as an optional parameter
  • Use it for free! (covered under the GNU GPL license )

E@rth WordPress Theme

This is a custom WordPress theme I created. As a freelance web developer, I know firsthand that there's good money to be made with WordPress. But in order to succeed, you've got to be able to re-skin it quickly. Hacking apart a default theme requires undoing someone else's design before you can do your own. It's often a frustrating time-suck.

The E@rth WordPress theme is designed to make re-skinning quick and easy. The CSS is simple and lightweight. The minimalist styling means there's less CSS to change. The neutral earth-tones are easy on the eye, helping you to visualize your own color-scheme. The floated layout makes it simple to move the sidebar from it's default position to the left, or alternatively to disable it completely.

  • Automatically add rounded corners to images and thumbnails.
  • Uses HTML5 tags with support for IE
  • Widgetized sidebar
  • Flexible floated layout
  • Easy to re-skin

Gaming Site Template

This is a pixel-perfect HTML5 template made for a company that produces gaming web sites. The CSS is organized into a global stylesheet and a separate site-specific stylesheet, separating the grid from the styling. It tested for consistently across IE 7, IE 8, IE9, Firefox, Safari, Chrome.
