Muir Surf & Skate

E-commerce website

I initiated and worked on muirsurf.com for almost three years, meeting and exceeding the client’s expectations. Its current state is the fourth major revision to the website, evolving to meet the client’s changing needs, with new features continuously being added.

The newest and most complex feature of the website is the ability for users to “Build-A-Complete” skateboard, choosing the components of their board with the flexibility and ease expected in today’s Web 2.0 culture. Product availability and purchases are tied in directly to the real-time inventory control system, ensuring that users can place their order with confidence, knowing that everything is in stock and ready to ship.

Point of Sale / Integrated Business Solution

Interfacing with the website and inventory tracking system, the in-store Point of Sale system allows the client the ultimate flexibility to track and process sales along their own workflow. The software was designed to meet their specialized needs and business practices, continuously refined along the way to ensure simplicity and ease-of-use.

Pool House Score Tracker

Built over a 3 day weekend, the Score Tracker started as an exercise in using new Rails plugins and features within a very simple project; my own way of playing with new tech. It has since evolved into an app used in my house every day. It makes it easy to track games played between different guests to the house, with the option to build detailed statistics reports later on. An iPhone app is in the planning stages to make it even easier to add new scores to the ranks.

Open Past Midnight

This Rails-based site was the culmination of a class project from Jim Hollan’s Human Computer Interaction Programming class from my Winter 2008 quarter at UCSD. Four fellow students and I collaborated to come up with a Google Maps mashup that could show hungry students which restaurants were open at all hours of the day.

Coming soon, I’ll be adding more examples of my work here.
