A bit of serendipity put in touch with the owner of Speed Digital and was soon designing the look and feel of automotive related websites for new clients they onboard into their custom CMS which is built for classic car collectors and dealers. The development is then handled by their guys in-house.

After being asked back to fix their website and work on some social media tasks we decided it best to rebuild the website since the current one at the time was destroyed by the people they let into it after “not needing my services anymore”. So I redesigned it and am currently on retainer to manage and update it as well as other machine listings on secondary sales platforms.

Odd freelance work back at Stride Management helping pick up the slack as they were a bit overwhelmed. Was tasked with creating a logo and website for the new Trucks & Bucks Lottery as well as the 2020 version of the Red Deer Hospitals Lottery. Also helped set up the backbone and system in which to allow the creatives to build all new websites upon the WordPress platform making small edits easier for non-developers.

Implemented, designed and managed a new WordPress website with full inventory capabilities to display all available machines for sale. Built and populated a secure section of the website for staff only including a company contact list. Designed print graphics for magazine ads, posters, in-store promotions and a new trade show booth. Managed all social media posts, analytics and incoming inquiries. Shot, branded and edited many location based machine photos and videos using multiple cameras and a drone.

Stride Management handles all aspects and logistics of many charitable lotteries in the Alberta and Saskatchewan. Lotteries such as Kinsmen Home Lotto, Caritas Foundation Lottery, Red Deer Hospitals Lottery as well as some work for STARS Lottery (websites). I was one of two designer/developers that handled creating all the print pieces as well as the lottery websites which yearly raise millions of dollars for such institutions as the Alberta Children’s Hospital.

Since purchasing my first PC in 1998 I was fascinated by the web and started building websites right away, learning fast and creating a freelance living. Self taught in HTML, CSS, the Adobe software suites etc I created hundreds of print pieces and websites over the years and am still available for remote freelance work. As of the last few years I’m also versed in Social Media Management and have taken recent training in lead generation and Facebook ads. Also adept at video editing and some motion graphics.

Initially hired to design and build three websites I was kept on until the economy crash of 2008 managing the sites I built as well as creating a few more for other smaller off-shoots of the company.

Web design and development for various companies and associations including the Pan Pacific Hotel Vancouver, BOMA and Leigh Jigs as well as the BC Lions CFL team before they went with a more template version used on many of the CFL teams.

I went to high school. I even spent some time on the student council. I graduated.
