How would you describe your time at WhitePages.com?

UI design and development within the Engineering team for WhitePages' Network. The Network included WhitePages.com/.ca and 411.com, as well as 60+ co-brand partnerships and an extensive affiliate system. In 2005, WP.com broke into the Top 50 Ad-Focused Websites (5/2005, ComScore MediaMetrix). Highlights of work at WP included:

* Authored GUI re-design in 2002 and helped design & marketing team better translate 2004 re-design into CSS, resulting in pages 75% faster @56k and 36% lighter. The redesigns and underlying "engines" supported traffic growth from 2M to 17M uniques/mo since 2002.

* Designed and developed CSS-based "skinnable" framework for co-brand distribution, allowing customized co-brand websites with minimal maintenance overhead. This framework powered co-brands for the likes of MSN, AOL, Verizon's SuperPages, SmartPages/YellowPages and YPG in Canada.

* Revamped entire front-end code base in early 2005 to better align with business and distribution requirements. Re-write also enabled better implementation of coding standards, improved CSS usage and greater leverage of XSLT's templating. Coincided with database, Perl and XML schema updates needed by entire development team. Consistently met deadlines over 3 month re-write project.

* Led interaction design/development and user advocacy, Network-wide. Frequently involved in technical writing, prototyping, user analysis and design/development for WP's sister-site "wizards", like their online mailing list generation tool.

How would you describe your time at Wellesley College?

Majored in Studio Art (focus Digital Art & Sculpture) and Media Arts & Sciences (effectively Web Design & Development). I attended Wellesley during the first dot-com bubble, and the school measured time to determine its response to the growing student interest in web design/development topics. A few like-minded students and myself banded together to form a loose independent major in web technologies and issues, gathering what we could from the school curriculum. My focus was media theory (emerging media) and graphic design. I tied the two together through my volunteer role as the Graphic Editor of the campus weekly newspaper, the Wellesley News. It was a great start to a lifetime of self-education about web technologies.... read more
