My Work at the Indiana Daily Student

I started in June 2006 and have since worked on almost every aspect of the site IDSNews.com.

My Co-Workers

I work with a very talented group of people.

A few of my biggest accomplishments are as follows:

  • Online Classifieds

    My latest project is a complete overhaul of the classifieds system. I have proposed a standardization of rates as well as providing the ability to offer promotions to increase ad orders. I also have proposed opening the classifieds online and in the paper to accept free ads for certain categories. I have received approval for both proposals and am currently in the process of implementing these features into the website.

  • Religious Directory

    The Religious Directory was a complete re-design that incorporated a varity of advanced JavaScript and efficient coding.

  • Advertising Management System

    I designed a new advertising system that allows for more efficient use of advertising space. This product has been integrated into almost every part of the web site.

  • Rotating AD Bar

    I designed a rotating ad bar that randomly features select features of the site.

  • Bottom Navigation Bar

    I designed the navigation bar at the bottom of main pages. It is built off of a dynamically generated JavaScript file.

  • Unified Administration Interface

    I designed a unified administration interface which allows easy and secure access control to the many different products and their respective administrative interfaces.

  • Housing Guide

    I built the Housing Guide with the idea of simplifying the management interface to increase adoption rate and thus increase revenue.

  • Order Processing Interface System

    To process orders the transaction must be passed off to a different server on the I.U. network. I wrote a simple interface system that acts very similar to commercial payment processing systems to handle this process more securely and efficiently.
