Commercial Work
  • Banners & Email HTML, Image, Flash
  • I usually have 20-30 banners to update and design per month. The majority of the updates come from the rotating flash banner on the landing pages of firstnational.com. I designed/developed the flash container that all the individual banners are pulled in to. This helped speed up the updating process tremendously over the old way, which required recompiling all three banners everytime there was a change.

  • Demo Flash, ActionScript
  • When I was first hired at First National I was tasked with creating an interactive demo for their online banking. They needed a demo that could be branded for all the main banks and affiliates and bring in different sections dynamically depending on which bank you were viewing the demo for. They also wanted the customer to be able to choose from either a guided tour or a manual tour. We designed/developed the demo with Flash, XML, and ActionScript 2.0.

  • UI Design Flash, Flex
  • This past summer I was asked to help improve the User-Interface of a new product that First National was rolling out to all their tellers. They were having a problem with navigation and the look and feel of the application. I worked with our accessibility expert to help develop some plans on how to simplify the navigation and keep people from getting lost in the application. After that I developed several mock ups of the application and worked with the business unit to create their new look and feel. After they decided on a look I work with the developers on implementing the new look into the FLEX application.


  • Video Flash, Editing
  • First National wanted to display their commercials on their marketing pages for their customers to view. I developed a themed video player for the commercials that matched the look and feel of the 150 marketing campaign.

  • Molly Fitzpatrick PHP, Design, Flash
  • Molly came to me wanting a website that she could run her photography business from. She originally didn't care about maintaining it herself, but later decided it would be nice if she could maintain the prices and photos she has on the site. So I am currently in the midst of updating her site to allow her to manage the gallery through smug mug and display those images on her site. I will also be adding a scheduling calendar for her to make appointments through the site.

  • Maverick Productions Rebranding, Design
  • The University of Nebraska at Omaha's Student Programming Organization (SPO) came to me with a rebranding request. They wanted to they're name from SPO to Maverick Productions, something that would tie them to the school a little better. They needed a new logo and they needed it quick. I supplied them with several renditions then I refined the logo they chose until they were completely happy. I supplied them with every type of format they would need along with instructions on where to use each type of format.
