Site Building
Request
Architected, designed, and built a company news portal. Updated the existing site, developed a more engaging homepage, and implemented an updated theme layer.
Solution
Working with Ketchum was a highlight of my career, as I had admired their work for years.
I joined the FedEx Newsroom project through a former colleague from NorthPoint who had already signed on. Using the provided wireframes, we quickly outlined the architecture and identified pain points in under 20 minutes, setting a clear direction for development.
The two of us completed the Newsroom site in just seven weeks, with my contributions including
- site installation and configuration
- internationalization to support multiple languages
- development of custom JavaScript to enhance functionality
- creation of custom modules tailored to client needs
- design and implementation of a custom theme layer
- data migration from legacy systems
- and rigorous quality assurance to ensure a polished final product
