Before I design a website, I will have several thorough discussions with my client about the audience, structure, content, and style. When we reach an agreement, I move on to making mockups. My principle of designing websites is to respect the functionalities and to find the best solutions to make a website user-friendly and pleasing to look at.

This website was created to gather bus ticket information in major cities of the U.S. East Coast, and to present the best travel deals. It was designed to be easy to use and straight forward.

School Project - Portfolio Website
The first website I designed, and coded by myself. Through this school project, I familiarized myself with basic HTML & CSS coding knowledge and learned some Javascript as well.



eCPIC.gov Rebranding and Redesign

This project was assigned to me when I was interning for USA.gov. It was for the eCPIC team, which operates an online application for government clients. Their old website was created in the 90s, old fashioned and did not have much design in it. Their goal is to migrate all the content to a new Wordpress CMS system, at the same time, have a fresh look. After discussion with the site's manager, and understanding what his needs were, I designed a set of new homepage and downlevel page, as well as their mobile versions, based on a new logo (branding) that I also re-designed for them. The structure of the site was based on the Wordpress theme-Skeleton. The design phase during this project look approximately 2 weeks. The complete timeline of of the project was very aggressive and the new site was launched in 5 weeks. It included design, development, content migration and quality testing.
