At Geographic Beverage, I created and programmed a web store using selected shopping cart software and developed its marketing plan and materials.

I also managed the site's SEO and paid keyword advertising campaigns. The store became a premier online vendor for branded beer apparel, representing merchandise from dozens of breweries.

At Details Art, I created website and advertising designs for web and print, including the company logo, publication ads, and mailers.

My work has also included graphic design for automotive and pharmaceutical clients at Xperience Communications, and interactive computer-based titles at Media Station, including Disney Interactive's Ariel's Story Studio and Hercules Animated Storybook.
