I recently redesigned the site for best-selling author Mike Adamick, in advance of the publication of his newest book, Raising Empowered Daughters: A Dad to Dad Guide. Promoted as a “fists-up handbook for helping dads help their daughters resist the patriarchy” this book focuses on how dads can raise girls in the modern world who won’t settle for second-class citizenship.

Mike wanted a clean, minimal site which promoted his new book, while referencing the other books he’s written. Absolutely loved working with him.

I worked with the Chicago-based team at SM Resources to create the site for Texas-based energy company, McCraw Propane. The site was designed to address the needs of both business and residential customers, and serve as an educational resource for propane use and safety.

The biggest challenge was taking a *lot* of information (the site is more than 70 pages) and making it easy to navigate for the various audiences this company serves. We used both keyword and category search as part of the navigation and integrated third-party systems to make managing customer accounts easy.

I can’t believe how long I’ve been lucky enough to work with Amy Menken Nobile and Trisha Ashworth. About 12 years ago, I created a site supporting their best-selling books on parenting and marriage. Later, I was brought in to design collateral and manage the site for jewelry business ASH + AMES. Last year, I designed a site for their latest book, Just When You’re Comfortable in Your Skin, It Starts to Sag.

Amy’s latest solo venture is Love, Amy, a full-service dating concierge service for busy singles frustrated by the complicated world of modern dating. (One client calls Amy her “Dating Fairy Godmother.)

Really, really, really excited about this site launch as gun reform is an issue dear to my heart. Shannon Watts is the founder of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America the leading force for gun violence prevention, with chapters in all 50 states. Moms Demand started humbly with a Facebook group Shannon created to connect parents following the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary.

Her book, Fight Like a Mother, is part manifesto, part memoir, part manual for changing the world. In it, she explains how to go from amateur activist to have real impact in your community and beyond. I designed the site to promote the book’s launch and give readers a preview.

The UCLA School of Law recently received a grant to study societal and legal changes related to the rapidly changing field of artificial intelligence. They hired me to build the corresponding site—AI Pulse—which invites legal AI scholars from around the country to share research regarding these issues.

They wanted the site to be clean, direct, and engaging, with minimal imagery. The posts are well-documented using footnotes and are available for export as PDF. The content also needed to be easy to search both by category and keyword. We also created the logo to integrate with their mission.
