Outspoken

The Mogreet team was acquired by payvia and we merged as one company. Mogreet combined its powerful mobile messaging platform with payvia’s mobile messaging aggregation service and our new company was named Outspoken.

A few months after the companies merge I was set to lead the rebranding and redesign of the Outspoken website. Through a rigorous research and a very tight deadline (20days) I was able to deploy into production a very powerful and engaging website powered by Wordpress. I worked 18 days out of the 20 days that I was given to build this site. Overall, this website is one of the best websites I’ve ever outputted.

Mogreet

Mogreet has a special place in my heart and I am very proud to be apart of their team. Through Mogreet’s startup culture I was able to cultivate my skillset and make it grow. At a startup you’re required to be able to adapt to different situations and problems. Through Mogreet’s clients and internal projects I expanded my skills of design and development. My naturally willingness to learn in and outside of the workplace synced perfectly with the Mogreet culture.

I designed, built, and maintained Mogreet sites’ such as Express, Enterprise, Developer, and moShare. In addition to Mogreet’s full websites, I also created some fun landing pages. My favorite landing page is our White Paper Landing Page because they let me be as creative and free as I wanted to.

Emmis

Working with Emmis is always fun. Emmis Communications owns radio stations such as Power 106 and Hot 97. I helped develop an M.O. Page for them that would be used at their shows. The page would be displayed on a jumbotron and while fans were at the event they could text, tweet, and Instagram their pictures straight to the page to be displayed for everyone to see on the jumbotron. These M.O. Pages were used at events for Hot97’s Summer JamXX and Power106‘s Power House.

Through Scanbuy and Mogreet I was able to work with Colgate to help them promote one of their new products the “Colgate Optic White”. Colgate was running a mobile promotion and needed mobile site to help their customers learn more about their new product. I checked out their desktop site and I was able to gauge the tone and feel of their site. I crate a fluid layout and matched their theme to it. Overall, their mobile site came out great and was compatible with a wide range of devices.
