360 Event Design
An event planner with a passion for food, art, service, and providing a superb experience for attendees and anyone else involved in her spectacular events.
Since this wasn't your average "planner" we had to come up with a site that showcased the interests and skills of the exceptional staff, making sure that all of the areas were properly called out and easy to navigate without getting lost in the sheer volume of content available to interested users.
RSS feeds automatically importing relevant information were added to enhance the readers experience and add to the amount of information available. An additional and non-standard to the CMS blogging component was added to make the blogging experience more seemless and easy.

Shitheadery
The site was designed as a “news site” with tons of content from several of contributing writers. Each category has its own menu item and section. The front page is populated automatically and dynamically based on the age or popularity of the article.
Out of cynicism and frustration was born shitheadery.com (pronounced shi-they-duh-ree).
The goal was to create a platform to highlight modern sophistry, intellectual dishonesty, social hypocrisy, smug attitudes of entitlement, and occasionally simple bad manners. The contributing writers call their families, strangers, neighbors, communities, leaders, and occasionally themselves to task for acts of shitheadery.

The Clusterzine area is a magazine component that is filled with relevant news items. The authors each have their own page and there’s a module to the right of any given article that displays the latest article by the author of the current article.
