Featured Project:
Email Marketing & Major Maintenance
I worked for Bare Escentuals (subcontracting) as a regular maintenance developer, and also coding more involved section additions. I developed and coded a weekly email campaign and implemented a project management system.
Above is an email; the client's in-house designer provided many unique print-like looks, both for the email marketing and the web site.
