The Woods Coffee - 5 year marketing plan
As an MIS major I not only acquired technical skills, I also developed a strong business background from many related fields. For a marketing project I was able to organize a meeting with Wes Herman the CEO of The Woods Coffee in order to develop a 5 year marketing plan for the business. As acting project leader along with a group of 6 peers, we worked in direct contact with upper management to develop a tentative business plan for the company. The plan can be downloaded by clicking the thumbnail above.
Photography
While not a professional aspiration, I very much enjoy taking pictures of the outdoors so I included a collection of my best photographs from over the years.
Portfolio
This site was developed as a portfolio to showcase my professional work. I used an XHTML template from Open Source Templates as a foundation. I then converted and manipulated the XHTML layout to one that incorporates all aspects of DHTML including CSS and javascript to create the consistent look I was going for. I then added a banner created using flash and photoshop. Implemented PHP scripts and MSql database for the blog page and contact form. I incorporated Lightbox.js for displaying my photograph and used JAlbum for my photography page within the portfolio. The contact page also includes a module from google that allows visitors to chat with me live when logged in.
