Experience

Optimized web design is my passion. I believe that websites should not only be attractive, they should also be usable and accessible, and optimized for search engines. If people can't find your website, let alone use your website, then there's really no point in having a website at all.

I have more than 12 years of experience developing websites. I've managed small to enterprise-level projects, and I understand what it takes to make a website successful.

Before coming to Sitening, I worked as an Interaction Designer for Visa, where I helped develop web applications for their consumer and corporate customers. Before that, I was the lead designer and product manager for an Internet startup company that provided a web-based CRM and project management tool for non-profit organizations. My other experience includes developing websites for:

  • E-Commerce
  • Online Distance Learning
  • Content-Rich Magazines
  • Online Promotions and Contests
  • Web-Based Applications

Philosophy

A web designer without a philosophy of design is like a ship without a rudder. A design philosophy ensures consistency in design, and reduces the chance of unpleasant surprises for clients. My philosophy is multifaceted — It attempts to create an attractive website, a usable website, and a website that people can find through search engines.

  • Know and design for your intended audience
  • Always strive to make the complex simple
  • Use Web standards and clean code
  • Keep web pages thin and fast
  • Harness the power of CSS in layout and design
  • Maintain the same look and feel on multiple platforms
