I have been working with html since 1995. It began as a hobby, but quickly grew into something more. I have been involved in different capacities with multiple web sites, personal, professional and commercial.

South 62 Construction

south62construction.com/

A small informational site created for a construction company in Baldwin County, Alabama in 2023. The site is hosted via GoDaddy and leverages the Wordpress CMS available through GoDaaddy hosting.

The site leverages the Wordpress navigation menu to populate a main top navigation on each page.

South 62 Construction project gallery page page

The gallery module allows for a visual project galley to show before and after images of worksites.

IL-MS LLC

Launched in January 2012, this is a refreshed website for International Logistics & Management Solutions of Covington, Georgia. The project called for an eight to ten page site with contact form capabilities. The company has locations in multiple states and so the contact form had to be able to direct emails to the correct location for rate quoting.

The width and height of the containers are set so that the site's masthead and borders are always visible.	As with the JP Office Solutions site below, the auto overflow property was applied to the container which contained the text for each page so that text can be scrolled within the page.
In order to correctly deliver the rate quote request information to the proper office location, the office dropdown sets a variable passed to the background php code to determine the email address used for the form handler.

JP Office Solutions

In September of 2011 I was contracted to refresh and provide a new web face for JP Office Solutions of Covington, Georgia. The project called for a six to eight page site with contact form capabilities. The site is hosted locally by the client on a Windows server using Internet Information Services, so all scripting would have to be asp based.

The curved border for the page was created using the border radius element and adapting a JavaScript code to force the curved elements in Internet Explorer for cross-browser functionality.	In order to keep the look and feel of the site consistent across pages with varying amounts of text, the auto overflow property was applied to the div which contained the text for each page.
The contact form uses JavaScript to handle error checking - assuring that the needed information is present before handing off the information to the asp code to email the form information to the designated email address.

Ideal Concrete & Stone

A small information only site designed and launched in January 2010. The client wanted a web presence and an ability to showcase a portfolio of previous work as well as an online catalogue of material choices for potential clients.

The page header was created in an attempt to mimic slate paving stone. The company logo was created in Photoshop based upon a branded clothing sample that was provided by the client.

The contact form uses JavaScript for error checking to ensure black emails are not sent. A mailto php code then collects the form data and emails it to the appropriate email address.

Cherokee Home Exteriors

A quick "facelift" for a metro Atlanta company's website, this site was done primarily to showcase the client's project portfolio.

The shared page header includes the company logo as well as a scrolling marquee featuring the various services provided by the company.

The client's primary desire for the site was to be able to provide an online portfolio of work done. The clickable image gallery allowed for smaller thumbnail images clickable to larger images of before and after work.

Not-for-Profit/Non-Profit Organizations

Georgia Association of Paralegals

The Georgia Association of Paralegals website was a site with which I was involved for many years. The site was redesigned in December of 2010 and I was responsible for coding the redesign based upon the client's wishes. I was also responsible for day to day maintenance of the site, as well as the back end code that worked with the databases and other user interactions. Meeting reservations, as well as other registrations, utilized php code to store form data in mySQL database tables. Other php scripts allowed administrators to export the data into Excel files.

The site was built around a three column design which utilizes the outer columns for navigation and information that needs to be available on every page, while the center column contains the page text. The site also had rotating advertising capability in the top section of the right hand column.	The site featured a password protected section accessible only to members of the board of directors. Credentialling was handled by a login and password combination stored in a mySQL database table and php scripting to check the entered password against the value stored in the database.
To provide online registration for meetings and events, a basic form allowed site visitors to select an event date, fill in their details and submit the registration directly into a mySQL database table. Those wishing to pay for an event by credit card were then directed to the website's PayPal page for payment.	Administrators were able to generate Excel reports of event attendees by the simple selection of an event and the press of a button. Data from the tables were exported using a php routine.

British American Business Group - This site design was an initial step to give this professional organization a presence on the web. It has since been superseded by a much more robust site. Though not available online, I do have this site archived and can make it available for those who wish to see it.

Georgia Association of Paralegals - This site was an early iteration of the site listed above. This site was created using static html in order to give the organization a web presence. Though not available online, I do have this site archived and can make it available for those who wish to see it.

The Guide to Community Preventive Services (The Community Guide)

www.thecommunityguide.org

The Guide to Community Preventive Services (The Community Guide) is a collection of evidence-based findings of the Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF). It is a resource to help select interventions to improve health and prevent disease at the state, community, community organization, business, healthcare organization, or school level.

I was responsible for the day to day operations and edits for this site from 2012 through 2025 as a contractor to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). During that time the site moved from a static HTML site to a Drupal-based WCMS and finally to a highly customized WordPress WCMS. The Drupal and WordPress sites were designed/built by dedicated teams and then the day to day operations were handed over to me.

Static HTML Site 2012 - 2016

The initial sitewas a static HTML site that was updated via Dreamweaver. All edits were made directly to the HTML code on a development (dev) server and approved by various scientists and health communications professionals at the CDC

News and announcements of new pages and new findings/recommendations from the CPSTF were hand coded as links to other pages within the site.

Community Guide static HTML cancer topic page

Primary navigation was handled by an include file that populated the header and masthead of the site. Navigation within a subsection of the site was handled by an include file that populated the left rail.

Drupal WCMS site 2016 - 2021

The Drupal WCMS site was built by an outside vendor and then handed over to me for day to day operations. The site was hosted on its own set of dedicated virtual servers. Besides the normal work of creating and editing pages, it was also my responsibility to work with agency systems engineers to install security patches and updates to the Drupal core.

The dynamic nature of the Drupal WCMS allowed for creating pages using SQL queries based upon page types. For example, and page that was of the type "news" would appear on the news an announcements page.

Community Guide Drupal cancer topic page

The site utilized the SQL backend of Drupal to create topic pages based upon health topics such as cancer. These pages were a mixture of dynamic content pulled to the page via SQL query and coding of text pieces.

WordPress WCMS site 2021 - 2025

The WordPress site was built to be a signle WCMS for the agency. Once the site was migrated from Drupal to the WordPress environment, my responsibilities were conent management, page creation, and editing.

The site utilized a collections content type to generate dynamic lists fo topics and articles.

Community Guide WordPress cancer topic page

As with the Drupal version of the site, topic pages were created as a compination fo dynamic content drawn from the collections content type and standard HTML coding.
