New page in my portfolio

Dec 10 ’06

Although this page went live a little while ago, I've just gotten around to writing it up. A scientist at the University of Santa Barbara contacted me about making a professional page for her. I've added it to my portfolio. I'm particularly happy about the image at the bottom of the page behaves: use a big screen and make your browser window wide. Very wide.

New site in my portfolio: JessicaReichman.com

May 26 ’06

I've just completed a new site for a local artist named Jessica Reichman. She approached me with a pre-existing web site that had gotten beaten with an ugly stick and then left unfinished. It failed to highlight her personality or her work. The new design does both. You can see my little writeup in my portfolio or you can just go visit the site to see what it looks like.

I'm officially moving

May 15 ’06

It looks like the career switch is now official. I was up in Portland, Oregon last week finding an apartment and a job, and thanks to the power of Craigslist, I got me both. The job is a web job that's big and corporate, but not super interesting coding. The upside of the job, though, is that at 5:00 it's done, and the job stays at work. It doesn't come home. That will leave me with plenty of time to do some freelancing on the side, to continue playing with Ruby, and do all of the more fun aspects of web design.

New site design: Aeonium

Apr 11 ’06

There's a new site design! If you look just underneath the search box in the sidebar, you'll now find a pair of links, titled "Banksia" and "Aeonium." These allow you to switch between the Banksia and Aeonium layouts. I think that the newer Aeonium layout is more successful, but I love the colors of Banksia and so I couldn't let it disappear. The new layout is named after the genus Aeonium, which graces the banner, and was inspired by both the geometric regularity of that species and a Japanese aesthetic of simplicity. Let me know what you think!

Hello World!

Jan 16 ’06

Hello world wide web. I hope that this post marks the beginning of a long and fruitful relationship between me and you. For my part, I'm a web designer-in-training. Or if you prefer, a grad student who decided to leave the botanical sciences for the wilds of the interweb. You might wonder why I would make such a transition. Well, there are several reasons.
