Facebook Stories
Marketing site for the Facebook Stories team.

Lead developer for a WordPress VIP site built to promote the Stories component of Facebook platform.

Uber Freight
Onboarding site for the Uber Freight team

Work closely with the Uber Freight team to introduce new content and features to the Freight site. The could be anything from building new React components in FusionJS, content migration, routing changes, or basic pixel adjustments and bug fixes to existing elements.

The site uses a Contentful JSON API backend, with a FusionJS / Styletron frontend. Development work would go through a standard approval process on dev / staging environemnts, which would then be deployed using the client's internal system.

Uber Brand
Uber brand guidelines site

A centralized guideline site for Uber's various teams to reference logo usage, typography, motion studies, photography usage, and more.

As a member of this dev team, I built out React components for the site using a tightly controlled theming system. Colors, Line height, Animation curves, buttons and more all had to be precisely consistent across components.

Volkswagen USA
VW USA Home page

Needing to sell thru a home page redesign, the client was having a difficult time visualizing the cost/benefit design choices presented. Tasked with building a full-fidelity prototype with no runway, I quickly contructed a stand-alone scaffold of the existing VW site to deliver a new protocype in with the design team. With little runway, I executed a behaviorly complete design in browser. It was constructed with live copies of existing HTML scaffold, and siting along side all JavaScript and CSS libraries running in production to provide the implementation team with the lowest possible barrier to execution.
