  • Project & Product Manager
  • Business Intelligence
  • Digital Brand Strategist

This Portfolio Breakdown

With more than 150 websites done, 100 brands designed and developed, 10 platform integrations and multiple web integrations done, I have been a bit lazy in updating the profile/portfolio and it is high time to start showcasing not just the work done but also some of the awesome ideas that slipped through the cracks that could help other organizations projects.

Target Audience

Receruiters for jobs/consultancies, Managers for project collaborations & Designers/Developers for the sake of sharing ideas and latest tech/concepts on the horizon (we go further together). One would think that this is a diverse user group, but its not because the core attributes I am looking for in these people are the same: Tech lovers, passionate about clean design and innovation.

Design Wishes

I once had a client tell me the site doesn't really load well on their watch ;D this is the harsh reality, if it has a connection it has a viewport to render web content. My wish would be to simplify this and have it as just 2 viewports: PC & Mobile - the good old days. After a not so quick device resolution study 1024px was the breaking point between the two and I am extremely happy with that.

Build Considerations

As the client I have no issue working with the most advanced tech even if it is not yet acceptable or adpotable by most devices, and the reason for this is (unless you are using Safari) the gap between a feature being released to it being adpoted has gotten really small as compared to earlier HTML5 days. Speaking of, I also do plan in Version 2.2 to harness a lot of the HTML5 native features (localStorage, webworkers etc) so as to make the site as light and fast as possible.

Solution Architecture

As a certified AWS Solution Architect I rarely get a chance to push the limit and this is the plan: Get it as fast as possible for as cheap as possible. After 10 years of managing a shared webhosting server I am thrilled to not have to focus on this part and rely on AWS for all of that.

Module Mockups

These are the inital designs, they changed (I am also a client). I want to use Grid and Flex for the entire site and so I get to fully control where my module will go and how they will look (either on PC or Mobile).

Version 2.2

Again I want to showcase what can be done on the web, and understanding the infrastructure it sits on its very important (ChatGPT can't remember who said it but it goes something like "You can't build a house if your don't understand how your building materials work"). AWS (and most cloud vendors for that matter) has a plethora of services that speed up the development time, thus giving me more time to be creative with the designs. There is the argument as to whether to use GitHub or AWS CodeCommit (don't really know why i've never been a fan of GitHub but that could change as well it does have tons of benefits).

Team Feedback

1/1
Me, Christian, Husband, Father, Creative Cloud & Solutions Architect & Designer

As the client on this one I wasn't that difficult to work with, the goal was simple: Create a future proof framework where I can be sharing my work and showcasing cool ideas on how technology can truly impact society for the good.
