For, and after my Elementary school reunion, I created and maintain this website allowing alumni and former faculty to stay in touch with each other. Creating this site, and the event, required a good deal of on-line research, including tracking down people that hadn't been in touch with each other for over 30 years.

The design of the 29 page site harkens back to school days, using chalk-on-blackboard captions and a ruled paper background. Then-and-now photos, biographies, contact information, and school trivia are also available.

Inherited Websites

Many of the websites I maintain are "inherited"; someone else did the original design and coding, but for one reason or another is no longer maintaining or improving the site for my client.

In circumstances where I inherit a website, I assume responsibility for the site, and, depending on the client's wishes, will either rework or redesign the site, or leave it as-is, only adding to it or modifying it in minor ways.

In many cases I am able to simplify the code to make the site faster and more managable. I have guided my clients so that their sites have been able to evolve beyond the vision they had when the site was first developed.

Reverse engineering someone else's code, especially in a case where they were using some unknown WYSIWYG editor, will often present challenges not normally seen when designing a site from scratch.

No Longer Active

Several of my client sites are no longer active. These include:

A 42 page website for the Santa Clara County Firefighters Local 1165;

An enrollment site for a course offered by the Matriztica Institute; and

A site for opera singer Andrew Eisenmann.

The Locus Technologies site was a portion of the company's intranet website, with information for employees about required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), that I designed from scratch. Rolling over specific pieces of clothing in the photo would highlight them and link to additional information.

The site for the book The Mind of God was one I inherited and, for a time, maintained for the book's author.
