Web Application Development: PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS: Recertification Tool
This application was developed for the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, Division of Workers Compensation Medical Services Delivery Section. They needed a way to deploy their recertification exam, record user entries, and provide user feedback based on entries. Application consists of thirteen cases with various question types including: yes/no (boolean) entries, multiple choice entries, digit entries with single and multiple correct answers, and text entries.
Web Application Development: PHP, MSSQL, HTML, CSS: File Management and Storage
This web application was developed for Facilities Management of the University of Colorado Denver, Health Sciences Center Campus. They wanted a searchable database that would securely store CAD drawing files as well as offer multi-tiered user-access to allow full access to staff users while allow more controlled and specific access to third party users such as students and subcontractors. The result was a full fledged file storage and management solution with all the user interface cues that makes the application easy to use. Features include: multi-tiered user management, database-to-Excel download utility, user account time length limits, and an advanced searchable database.
Web Application Development: PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS: Login/Registration System
Throughout the years, the Center for Innovation in Training Technology has been contacted by other universities to purchase our various online training modules. Previously, clients were given HTML and CSS files and left to their own resources to determine an implementation strategy. This system allows students to login, register, view the course materials then take an exam while recording scores and providing results to supervisors via a separate login page. Features include: login, quiz record storage, a downloadable PDF certificate depending on passing grade, and a searchable admin interface.
Flash Development: Flash + Actionscript: Architecture & Planning
This project was to convert an existing design to an interactive Flash application with a custom content editor for the XML driven data. Features include: random (of 4) initial image selection, automatic sequential transitions, and Flash text styled with CSS.
Flash Development: Flash + Actionscript: School of Public Affairs
This project was to convert an existing design to an interactive Flash application. Features include: automatic sequential transitions, content fed via XML, text styled with CSS.
Flash Development: Flash + Actionscript: Standards of Conduct online training course
The objective of this training project was to convert the text-based "Standards of Conduct course" into a more engaging format. It was by my suggestion that the university decided to use Flash with integrated video as the improved delivery system. These are my suggested designs.
Misc. Interactive: PDF: CU Denver Graphic identity guide
For my senior project I decided to create a more functional graphic standards manual for the University of Colorado Denver. Throughout my employment with the University I was tasked with handling the brand at various times, and the online tools that currently exist are inadequate at best. My standards manual addresses the common graphic issues more completely but also addresses departmental consistency with the overall objective of establishing a consistent message throughout the whole university.
Misc. Interactive: Shockwave: Interactive component for audio CD
This project was to create an audio CD accompaniment that added additional value to the physical CD versus music purchased online. As a solution, I chose to display the music in an interactive format, showcase the group’s music videos, and provide an interactive slide show with the music defined by user selection.

Print: Business cards: 4D Solutions inc.
I was approached by 4D Solutions Inc. to develop their identity and design their business materials. At our interview, I asked what 4D meant and was told "4D represents the fourth dimension," which is "time" in scientific terms. It became clear that this had to be tied into their logo somehow since, not only is it represented in their name, but is also the binding similarity between the audio and visual components of their company. The end result uses the industry standard SMPTE time code as a foundation and incorporates their name within it.
Print: Literary journal: Copper Nickel
The Copper Nickel is a literary journal developed by students in the English department. I was asked to create an InDesign template they could easily use to populate the internal pages of their journal. It began as a single-issue template but has been used in all subsequent issues to date. My hallmark is in the page numbers. I figured the readers would appreciate the written word since it is a literary journal. So, instead of using numerical characters, I spelled out the numbers. This was a volunteer project.
Print: Promotional flier: Niketown Denver
Niketown Denver needed a dual-purpose promotional flier for their annual women’s day event. They wanted a piece to pass out in-store and also send through the mail, so the traditional 4x6 was a natural approach.
Print: "Employment Services" folder: Career Center
The CU Denver Career Center needed a promotional piece that communicates CU Denver’s students unique attributes as well as the Career Centers services to employers.
Print: Newspaper ad: Career Center
This layout was a flyer that became a poster and then an ad and converted from color to grayscale. It was published in both campus newspapers. Many of the elements used here were also transferred into all other collateral materials for the expo including handouts, signage, badges, and booklets.
Print: Event booklet covers: Career Center & the Research Day committee
These are two covers I designed for the 2006 Career Expo and the 2006 Research and Creative Activities Day.
Print: Promotional posterboard: Experiential Learning committee
This is a poster that was mounted onto foam-core and placed on an easel for use at new student orientations to help promote experiential learning.
