Development is not only about doing or making, but also providing, guiding, assisting, and educating.
Design is not just the result of clicking a few things in Photoshop, but listening to the needs, discussing the options, and providing solutions.
UX | UI Any website is the culmination of many facets. Good User Experience and User Interface result in great websites which drive business goals while servicing the site user in engaging ways.
Web Architecture uses technical, aesthetic, and functional criteria to plan and develop websites while paying particular attention to web content and web design, with the focus being on the user and on user requirements.
Simply said: Web Architecture means structuring a website to achieve business goals.

Web Architecture interlaces and combines several fields:
Web Architecture is the masterminded creation of a website’s strategy, information structure, technology, design, and usability.
A Web Architect sees the world through two lenses: information that needs structure, and structures that need form. It’s not enough for sites to function well; as I see it, they need to function beautifully. — Paul D. Gurney, PDG
The initial purpose of a website is usually based on an idea of the owner, and most business owners will have a sense what they want to achieve with their new website, without having the specific background knowledge of how to reach this goal. Clarifying and distilling the objectives and requirements is the first step for a Web Architect before beginning to plan the specifics.
Web Architects conceptualize the structure of a website and plan exactly how different components will be linked together which includes a mix of:
The duties of a Web Architect are far-reaching, more than only coding markup language (HTML) or using a graphical program to create a web page. They need to have good knowledge of Content Management Systems (CMS), user-friendly and accessible navigation practices, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and how to implement a variety of goals in modern, responsive websites.
Web Architects may also work with databases. Additionally, Web Architects need to have skills in trouble-shooting various aspects of websites, prevent broken links and media that fails to load correctly.

Good design engages the user in a positive way, no matter if it is in the form of a printed brochure or a shopping cart on the web. Human-centered design zones in on the problems, goals, needs, emotions and behavior of people in relation to the product.
Any of the 3 aspects — understanding the context of use (why would someone use it), specifying user requirements (what can be done with it), and the design solutions (how is its functionality and aesthetics) — need to be evaluated against business requirements.
Excellent User Experience (UX) Design considers the entirety of a product and the user. Seamless, fluid experience for the user is void of any possible frictions or barriers, making an application accessible and pleasant to interact with.

These are some of the most recent project completed — my contribution being either partial or all.
[Spring 2019] This year brings many new and exciting challenges — and also this redesigned site. The original idea has evolved over the years and finally has come to fruition. It includes a flat PHP database and many custom javascript features.
[Winter 2018] I am proud to have finally brought all applications at work (with which I was directly involved) to full 508 and WCAG 2.0 Compliance.
[2018] The latest financial application features now split payment options for credit card, cash, check, money order, and traveler's check. The design and flow remain clean and beautiful, despite many configuration options.
