Kim Russell for Michigan Senate

by David Zemens · February 7, 2010 · Portfolio , WordPress

I am excited to announce the roll out of a new website for a candidate for the state senate in Michigan.

Kim Russell has recently announced her candidacy for the Michigan State Senate as a Republican from the 12th District. Her website represents the vibrancy and passion that she will bring to the race and I was pleased to be selected to develop her campaign website.

As usual, I developed this website using WordPress as the back end content management system. I am very pleased with the design of the website and wish Kim the best in her election efforts.

Corrugated Pipe

by David Zemens · January 17, 2010 · Portfolio , Website Design , WordPress

Late last week I was contacted by a client who needed some help with a WordPress blog that he had installed and customized. He was on a tight time schedule and wanted his new website completed as quickly as possible. To complicate matters just a bit, the client was on a business trip that took him from his home in Quebec to Los Angeles for the week. The client wanted his new Corrugated-Pipe website to be up and running within the week.

In order to complete this project within both the time frame and budget I had to fall back on some previous WordPress themes I had been working on in my spare time. One of those themes was to the liking of the client and we agreed to utilize that theme, with modifications, to complete this project.

St. Anastasia Roman Catholic Church

portfolio-stanastasiaProject Complete: In late July of this year I was contacted by St. Anastasia Roman Catholic Church and asked to submit a proposal for a website redesign and development. The church was not happy with their outdated site, which needed a new look. Nor were they happy with the content management system that drove the site. It was cumbersome to work with and as a result the site was rarely updated.

As is often the case, I utilized the WordPress content management system to control the backend of the new site. WordPress afforded me the flexibility of developing a hundred page website, with multiple users and contributors, and all within both the time frame and the budget of the client. The new site is clean, good looking and easy for the staff at St. Anastasia to use. That was the goal, and I am happy to report the goal was met. And of course, the XHTML is coded to the Strict standard and validates according to the standards of W3C. As you might guess, the CSS is also valid level 2.1.

Working with this client was really a dream come true. My primary contact at St. Anastasia took her responsibilities regarding this project just as seriously as I took mine. Together, we worked hard to deliver a finished product that everyone is proud of. And to be honest, we did it in a time frame that is rarely ever met for sites that are one-tenth the size and complexity of this project. If only all my clients were this easy to work with!

Thanks to everyone at St. Anastasia for working together to get the new site up and running!
