DESCRIPTION:

Our first project in Advanced Web Development with Ilse Dyck when we were back from the 2020 winter break was to invent an app that could exist 5 years from now! As we only had five weeks to work on the app with all our other school work at Red River college, this was a group project. The app we were proud to design is called Skillit, an app that uses a virtual chef to help you learn how to cook quick and easy meals in your own kitchen!

PROJECT:

WordPress Theme for No Fun Club

ROLE:

Designer and Developer

DATE:

2020

DESCRIPTION:

No Fun Club is a new music and artist hub that was looking to replace their existing static website with something that would allow them to easily edit the content, run events, and moderate a site forum. With that in mind, I designed and developed a WordPress theme for them. I worked with the client to redesign the website branding and imagine web page looks using Sketch, and then developed and taught them how to use their new website. Among WordPress’s default utilities this project included developing custom stylesheets using Sass, a unique front page php loop, and an interactive forum for the site users.

During the end of my schooling at Red River College, we were tasked with taking an existing website for a magazine and redesigning it with a UI kit, and mockups of the new pages as if they were WordPress templates. I have fond memories of jazz band in high school, and so dig! Magazine was the perfect fit for me to redesign. I used Sketch for both the UI kit and the mockups on this project.

PROJECT:

Website Analysis and Redesign For Government

ROLE:

Web Analyst

DATE:

2019

DESCRIPTION:

In the summer of 2019 I was hired on by the Government of Manitoba through STEP services to methodically audit the internal website for Business Transformation and Technologies (BTT) and redesign it. Their original intranet site had been created in Microsoft Sharepoint, and the hope was to create a new website in something modern like Wordpress. While the built in synergy with Microsoft software was an asset, the site as a whole had become so bulky and hard to navigate and was beginning to show it’s age.

PROJECT:

Website Design and Development For a Mock Studio

ROLE:

Designer and Developer

DATE:

2019

DESCRIPTION:

For a school project, I invented a photography/ graphic design studio called daguerreoTYPE, and created a fully responsive website for it. My idea with using a design studio for this project let me go in a modern and graphic direction with the design. The food, fashion and graphic design pages are pretty funky in terms of design, and the fashion and poster pages will link to short webpages that include more information about the subject.
