NOTABLE RECENT PROJECTS
AUTO CREDIT EXPRESS
HOMEPAGE/CONTENT PAGES REDESIGN
This project was designed and developed from concept through deployment, combining user experience strategy with web development. The process began with concept planning, user flows, Figma wireframes, and interface design, resulting in a clean, intuitive, and fully responsive user experience optimized for both desktop and mobile devices.
After finalizing the design in Figma, I transformed the approved mockups into a production-ready website using modern HTML, CSS, PHP, and responsive development best practices. I managed the entire development lifecycle—from UX strategy, wireframing, and visual design to front-end development with hand-coded HTML and CSS, and PHP implementation, testing, performance optimization, and deployment. The result was a polished, high-performing, fully responsive web experience that prioritized usability, accessibility, clean, maintainable code, and long-term scalability.
B2B
BANNER AD DESIGN
These banner advertisements were strategically designed to maximize B2B lead generation by combining strong visual hierarchy, trust-building elements, and compelling calls to action that encourage user engagement. Each banner leverages high-impact automotive imagery, bold typography, and conversion-focused messaging to immediately capture attention while reinforcing credibility through prominent BBB A+ Rating and Trustpilot review badges.
The layouts were carefully optimized to communicate key value propositions within seconds, balancing brand trust with clear marketing objectives. From initial concept and visual design to production-ready digital assets, every banner was created to perform across multiple advertising platforms, increase click-through rates, strengthen brand confidence, and drive qualified automotive financing leads while maintaining a consistent, responsive, and professional brand identity.
CARSDIRECT
WEB IMAGE GRAPHIC DESIGN
These promotional vehicle graphics were designed to inform customers that new inventory is on the way, even before vehicle photography becomes available. The goal was to create visually engaging placeholders that maintain a polished, professional appearance while generating excitement for upcoming arrivals. By providing an attractive preview of incoming inventory, these assets help keep the website fresh, encourage customer engagement, and communicate that new vehicles are continuously being added to the dealership's selection.
