YouFloral.com offers consumers with a new way to order flowers online. With personalized VaseExpression vases and an easy-to-use vase builder, it’s easy to send beautiful flowers with your own special message right from your computer. This project is pure asp.net/c# with a sql backend and includes a lot of custom, on the fly image rendering in both 2 and 3 dimensions. I also spend a lot of time building the e-commerce shopping, cart and checkout pages to make the consumer’s experience simple and clear. My favorite feature is a color matching algorithm that matches bouquets to your vase by color – ensuring customers get the best looking product possible.

D-Bat Franchises showcases the excellent franchising opportunities that exist in these premier baseball and softball training academies. The site is a custom WordPress skin with several custom plugins which make it easy for the D-Bat team to swap out videos, update content or add new pages to the site. As you’ll see on the homepage, the site makes extensive use of embedded Vimeo videos to explain franchising opportunities to visitors.

TheIdeaStartup continues to be my largest project to date. The site is pure asp.net/c# with a sql backend and includes custom socket servers for real-time push notifications to visitors. The site also makes extensive use of custom front-end controls and focuses on front-end interaction to enhance the user experience. Unique challenges for this site included developing a financial modeling engine capable of running thousands of calculations concurrently for hundreds of visitors. I built most of what you see on the site, though we brought in developers to help build out the backend and create our excellent design (thanks to Jacqueline Barcamonte for that). I’m a co-founder at TheIdeaStartup.

HS Baseball Report is an excellent source for high school baseball prospect information and discussion for the Southwestern US. The application consists of a front-end public site, backend content management system, message boards, and ecommerce functionality. I custom wrote the backend to support the unique lists, team, and scout tip videos that the client needed control over.

The flash intro movie and page header, as well as the design of the site were integrated from client purchased templates.
