Deal Chipper
A new online property for daily deals which will be making its debut in the coming months. This was a fun illustrative project for me. I don't get the opportunity to do character development often, so having the chance to mascot this site with a series of unique cartoons was a welcome change. This was another ground-up from wire frames to final front end code.

Geefter.com is a social networking website that redefines what "social giving" is. From front end development and planning to user interaction and experience auditing, Geefter was a great project to work on. A talented graphic designer crafted the company branding and a strong identity, while I had the pleasure of coding the website and crafting asset visual elements.

Not only was Jamie one of my favorite clients but she makes web designers appreciate the time we spend to craft functional CMS administration features.
