The Brand Leader®

• 1 - 100 Employee

• Senior Web Developer

  • Jan 2013 - Present

  I started at Showcase Marketing as the lead front-end developer, but the job quickly expanded into more of a full-stack developer role within the first couple of months. Initially, we were developing sites with PHP and ASP for different platforms, but eventually, we simmered down to just PHP with custom-built themes in Wordpress for our CMS. Currently, I work as the Senior Developer at The Brand Leader, which is the company that Showcase Marketing turned into after rebranding.

Freelance Designer / Web Developer

• Anderson, SC

• Freelance Designer

  • Jan 2007 - Jun 2007

  I did a lot of a design and development work with extensive flash and AS3.0 business portfolio sites and product line microsites for a few years while freelancing. Eventually, I moved towards building sites in jQuery and AJAX, and I utilized Wordpress as a backend CMS once custom post-types came out, which blurred the constrast between a blog framework and a typical CMS into a multi-functional resource. While I still use php in some projects in and out of my current job, I work alongside other developers that have peaked my interest in ruby. So, the drive to keep up-to-date with online technologies and improve the user experience maintains my interest in this type of design work.
