A Shui Life
In February of 2007, a new all-women's dragon boat team, A Shui Life, was established by two Deaf women in Portland. As one of the founders, I carry a big passion for the dragon boat sport and wanted to use the activity to provide a vehicle for their vision of growth and unity among the Deaf and Hearing communities. In helping A Shui Life grow, it was no question for me to design and code a simple website for the team to get more recognized.

E-File Magic
E-File Magic, located in Oregon, is an innovator in e-file for the business community. They provide software and services for e-filing, printing and mailing a multitude of IRS business forms. I worked with E-File Magic to improve their website by making it easier for their customers to access their newly developed software and services. Just as with The Drama Learning Center, I was asked to create the basic layout design with codings of XHTML and CSS. E-File Magic implemented all the content information.

Drama Learning Center
The Drama Learning Center (DLC), based in Maryland, provides a variety of programs for people of all ages and interests in drama. They provide opportunities for participants to have fun as they learn and improve drama skills, perform on the musical stage and work as a theatrical team. I was asked to create/design a brand new type of "feeling website" that would attract more people to drama and help them succeed. With their newly developed layout, DLC is now working on adding new content information and images to the site. Their work is still in process.

Chestnut Lane
Chestnut Lane is an assisted living home community for Deaf and Deaf-Blind residents that provides personal services and assisted care to support their independence and privacy. I became involved working with Chestnut Lane's Director and Activity Director in re-developing and re-designing their web-site. I produced a much simpler and cleaner site to make it easier for their residents to browse through. I also included adjustment font size ability on the web-site, since some residents have a difficult time reading small text on screen and print.

Greensoda Productions
Greensoda Productions is an independent company that produces film and theatre about Deaf people and Deaf culture. There are two films that are currently in progress, a commentary film, Soda Stories, about what it is like to have a Deaf sibling; and a documentary, Austin Unbound, about the life of a Deaf transgender. Fascinated by these projects, I was motivated to re-design and re-develop the web-site to give it a more original layout with education about the films being produced. Greensoda Productions’ aim is to educate those who are curious about their films. The web-site encourages viewers to assist Greensoda Productions with funds to complete the films and get them released. In addition to the web-site, I also helped the director with small plural multimedia projects, and have been involved with interviews for funding.

Travel Connection
Travel Connection is a travel company that provides air-inclusive and land only vacation packages to clients, and to travel agents for resale to their clients. I was hired primarily to re-design and re-develop Travel Connection’s web-site. Using XHTML and CSS, I am responsible for pretty much everything for the web-site except for the programming and database work. I have also become involved in re-designing and merging database from my company into Washington/Northern Idaho’s AAA site—our parent company.
