Hella Black Trivia

Hella Black Trivia website

In terms of both aesthetics and content, this was an exercise in minimalism. It’s almost entirely black & white, containing a purchase link for the card game and a contact form for booking events. One page, no frills.

RogersLeads

RogersLeads website

I worked very closely with the client on this project, starting with naming the business and buying the domain.

A lot of thought (and copywriting) was done to put together a compelling sales pitch for this consulting business. If you want to reach out to Jeff after going through this one-page website, we’d consider it a job well done.

The Clubhouse Network

TCN website

This was a complete website overhaul I did for my employer, The Clubhouse Network. The former website was dated and built upon Drupal, which none of my colleagues understood well enough to work with. I switched over to WordPress.

I created multiple custom content types, most notably for the locations page. That page is dynamically populated from Salesforce data to present an always up-to-date map and list of the organization’s sites.

Anonynote

  • A lightweight web app for maintaining and organizing notes
  • URL: anonynote.org
  • Launch Date: 2016
Anonynote notepad

This project started life on Peterscene 1.0 as a proof-of-concept, but I decided I liked it enough that it needed to be its own website.

The idea was to create a lightweight web app for maintaining and organizing notes—no logins, no passwords. Quick and easy. Among other uses, my thought was to have a space for storing unmemorizable textual information that I could quickly copy and paste from on multiple devices.

A few years later, I overhauled the site to make it a Progressive Web App. Add it to the home screen on your device for additional app-like functionality.

I was inspired by a website called Dispostable, which I have long been a patron of. It allows you to access any email inbox at the dispostable.com domain—perfect as a substitute for giving a questionable site your real email. You cannot password protect these email accounts. Your only protection is that no one knows which account you’re using. There’s no directory. In essence, your email address is your password.

So it is with Anonynote. You create a notepad and fill it with notes. Color code it and arrange it to your taste. Anyone can open the same notepad you’ve created, but, there’s no directory. No one knows your notepad name except you. As long as it isn’t completely generic, the odds of someone stumbling upon it are slim.

I received a commission from Blair to troubleshoot her professional site’s server response time, which was lagging. A breezy server response time is critical to the success of a website. There are many steps that can be taken to speed up your site.

Albany KTC

albanyktc.org

Albany KTC, a non-profit Dharma center teaching authentic Tibetan Buddhism, contacted me about a website overhaul. They had gone through several web developers in the past, and what they were then operating with was a bizarre hybrid of a WordPress site and a great deal of custom code.

I sifted through everything and consolidated it under WordPress. This job was equal parts archaeology and janitorial work, as well as updating for responsive design. I enjoyed the challenge!

Redline Motorsports

redlinemoto.com

I managed Redline Motorsports’ online identity since 2007, from branding, to design, to sales.

This latest incarnation of the website was built for e-commerce. To date, total sales exceed $45,000, and that was with a limited advertising budget. In addition, the success of this website drove sales on other platforms, including Amazon and eBay.

The company continues to grow and evolve. I am happy to have contributed to their success and look forward to seeing what’s next.
