I have been working with web pages since about 1994, working with the early Mosaic and Netscape browsers. As time went on and my skills matured, I started offering my services as a web designer and consultant. I have been doing so professionally since 1996. My areas of expertise are wide ranging. I have been involved in live streaming video presentations, database development, online conferencing, and other such projects.

  Until 2000, I was part of the web development team at Memorial University, in addition to various freelance projects I am committed to. I currently do work both on a national and international basis as a freelance developer for different clients.

  I have a few ongoing projects, and I try out new ideas here on this page. I was until February of 1999 with STEM~Net, as a webmaster for the SchoolNet News Network (SNN). I left that position to go as an exchange student to Ireland. I have also worked on Web page development for the Department of Political Science at Memorial University.

  These days, I pursue freelance work and offer network and web consulting services.

European Public Administration Network This is the web site for the European Public Administration Network. Its a fairly complex site, with user polling and message boards built in. It also provides a great deal of documentation in pdf form. This allows for the online publication of application forms, papers and other such materials.

Sociology - Department of Government & Society, University of Limerick A page I designed for Sociology at the University of Limerick. Seems to be having technical problems with their server at the moment, but I like this design a lot.

History - Department of Government & Society, University of Limerick This web site was done for the history section of the Government and Society Department. The theme is very well suited to the information on the site. I only wish the link had been preserved from the main G&S page. It is rather hard to find at the moment.

Jean Monnet Summer School on European Integration This page was done as a smaller project intended to put the relevant information about the school online. I update it periodically with new photos from the annual school class. The design is rather new, so I have not been asked to change it just yet, although greater interactivity has been requested.

Graduate Studies - University of Limerick This is a page based on the UL design already in place. I simply added some graphics and inserted a dhtml dynamic menu, in order to improve organization.

University of Limerick - Department of Law The Department of Law inquired if I would be able to produce something for them along the lines of what had been done for the Department of Government and Society, and I was happy to oblige. This offset design is a little different from your typical web page, as I intended. I still think it needs a little more life, and am addressing that now. For the moment though, I am pleased with the result. I hope to have a chance to work on other departmental pages - a design trend seems to be falling into place.

Administrative Systems Group - Memorial University of Newfoundland This particular project was taken up during the summer of 1999, as an employee of the Web Development group of Memorial University. I implemented an auto-update system which seems to have been well received on campus. Being able to fill out a form that automatically creates a web page is a very pleasing feature.

Student Computing - Memorial University of Newfoundland I can only claim partial credit for this one - it was more of an orchestrated effort between the members of the Web Development Group. My credits on this site are the graphics and the final look and feel. I implemented an auto-update system for these pages as well. The signpost I designed made it's way into several bookmarks, posters, and brochures as well. It was quite well relieved. It's big and it's useful. If you're a student at MUN, you'll like this site.

University of Limerick - Department of Government and Society This project I undertook during my European exchange to Ireland from February to June. The Department of Government and Society encompasses Sociology, Political Science, Law, and History. I couldn't have done this one without the assistance of the photography department - which supplied me with my photos of the campus. Thanks to the staff as well, who were always happy to lend a hand - it was much appreciated. I'll definitely be returning - Ireland is like a home away from home.

Centre for European Studies at the University of Limerick I actually had to do library research to make this page come to life - I needed a mediaeval map of Europe to get the effect that was being looked for - I think I worked out nicely - very low key, yet professional. Only having four categories to deal with gave me more flexibility than is usually the case. I could afford to be a bit more graphical than usual.

European Community Studies Association - Canada The European Community Studies Association - Canada (or ECSA for short) is a smaller cog in a really big wheel. There are several dozen European studies associations worldwide. This site was a new design concept I tried - it makes interesting use of tables and just a touch of Java. I try to use Java sparingly, as I design for all platforms - and Java is erratic at times. I'm still working on this one - look for updates.

The Young Liberals of Newfoundland and Labrador A "quickie" job leading up to election day - contains a great deal of useful information on the youth movement and the Young Liberals in general. Most of the content and logos were supplied, so it wasn't all that difficult to fit into a design - after all, red was bound to be a default colour - couldn't very well use blue now, could I? update Aug 2000- This page has been changed, although it does use some of the graphics I original designed - the important thing though is that I didn't do the new page - it's pretty awful.

The SchoolNet News Network One of my most complicated projects - ever. I was hired as it's Webmaster/Graphic designer and I worked there for 9 months. I redeveloped the existing site, creating a whole new graphic look and layout. The concept and look are my creations, although the web designer hired as my replacement occasionally makes additions. The main look you see is my doing however. A sidebar has been altered since my departure, but that's about it. It is presented in French and English (there's a design nightmare) and totals over 150 pages. I also did a great deal of video post-production for this page, although unfortunatly some of the more complex video editing techniques are no longer in use. I'm quite proud of this one - check it out. update Aug 2001- After three years, this design has been replaced. The new one is nice, but very simple in comparision and function. If you want to see the older versions which bear my design stamp, try the "back issues" section. update Sept 2001- my first web page to make it in the Globe and Mail! A write up was done on the page, as well as some other projects we worked on. Click on the image to read teh article.

Canada/European Union Exchange Programme The CEUEP is a project I undertook for the Political Science department at Memorial University of Newfoundland.It included an online simulation, which was a great success.         This is the new design I implemented in March of 2000. Its due for some changes again as the simulation starts up, but I suspect the lok will stay the same for some time. I like this particular design, although it is graphically intensive

Department of Political Science - Memorial University of Newfoundland Yet another project for Memorial University of Newfoundland.This page is designed around the general guidelines for pages designed for the main university page - although I took some liberties. The most unusual feature for this page is the self-maintaining web pages I have set up for the faculty. I finished that feature this summer - works great.

Le Conseil scolaire francophone de Terre-Neuve et du Labrador The French school board in Newfoundland and Labrador. The graphics are my creation, but some of the index and back pages have been altered since I worked - the map and graphic look are basically my work

The Microcomputer Workstation Resource Centre - Version 1 This one I did in 1997 - it's scheduled for replacement some time in the near future. This one has quite a bit of useful info - The MWRC is a great place to do special work - I haven't found anything like it elsewhere.

The Microcomputer Workstation Resource Centre - Version 2 Guess who they got to do the update? I decided that there was no time like the present - seeing as I was on the payroll and all, and set to work upgrading the site top a new design - after all as long as my name is on it, it reflects on my skills. The secondary pages have some very nice and very tricky graphical effects - have a look-see. update Aug 2000- Alas, this page is no more. The name of the centre changed, and the design was discarded.

I designed this logo for the use of the Computing and Communications Help Centre at Memorial University. It was in use for about a year.

I used to be the webmaster for the Newfoundland and Labrador page of the Canadian Red Cross Society until the national office assumed responsibility for all Red Cross pages nationwide. This page was my first design project outside of my personal home page. I did this one in 1996.   Visit the National Red Cross website

The frames model has some appeal to me, so I made use of it in the design of this page for a professor in the Political Science Department at Memorial University of Newfoundland.

This was what the stylish web page looked like in 1995. My previous incarnation lasted for about a year before I finally got around to changing it.
