Here you will find some examples and links to my work. I have been studying Web design for about 3 years and am still on the journey. In every new project I undertake, I push myself and aspire towards creating something better than ever before. Some examples here are a couple of years old, but are still important milestones in my creative professional career. You will find examples of CMS-based sites that were essential to my learning process and helped me to better understand the fundamentals of information architecture.
Thanks very much for taking the time to browse my work and please check back frequently as I have plans to add a few more projects very soon. An e-commerce example in in the works and also a tutorial on translating a graphic design in to a Wordpress template.
