My Successes
Current
I am working on a new website for the Contra Costa County Bar Association (CCCBA) as the project manager, content coordinator and senior writer. New site will launch second quarter 2010.
I am the principal coordinator for both online and offline dependencies, ensuring that what is promised online matches CCCBA procedures offline.
I work with Jessica Gore from Gore Creative (graphic design and website development), the CCCBA team and third party software vendors to ensure a smooth launch. References.

2007-2009 State Bar of Texas (SBOT) New site will launch second quarter 2010.
I was hired by SBOT to reorganize its current content into web-friendly buckets that addressed the needs of its member base of 93,000 active and inactive lawyers, and also addressed the needs of the general public.
Once I developed cohesive buckets of information based on user tasks and goals (i.e., a new navigation scheme), I was then hired to write more than 500 pages of copy to address these tasks and goals. References.
