Title: Web Designer

Job Description: Vantiv, formerly Fifth Third Processing Solutions. I provide web design services and graphics for clientcenter.tnbcard.com, and customized websites for credit unions that join Vantiv in order to provide credit card ordering and processing services through their website.

Job Highlights:

• Customized websites for www.gotomycard.com. Vantiv has created a website template for www.gotomycard.com. For a fee, customers can request the template to be customized for their business. My role is to match the customer's website within the limits of the template by creating a style sheet that places design elements provided by the customer or created by me within the framework of our template. I also customize the mobile website experience. A few samples of custom websites: TDECU. Mobile Oil FCU, Neches FCU, Shell FCU, GESA CU, Houston Police FCU, Texas Tech FCU and Texas Trust CU.
• Client center website redesign. I recently completed the redesign of clientcenter.tnbcard.com past the login page due to Vantiv's recent name change and new marketing direction.
• "Design It!" website redesign. I completed the redesign of this website early December of 2011. "Design It!" is a service located at designit.gotomycard.com where customers may customize the appearance of their credit card by uploading a photo.

Town North Bank, Dallas, Texas 2008 to 2010
Title: Web Designer

Job Description: I maintain several public-facing websites: tnbonline.com, townnorthbank.com, tnbcard.com, gotomycard.com and apply.gotomycard.com. For each website, I establish publishing guidelines and standards for website organization, functionality and layout, and create new web pages, graphics and Flash or .gif animations as necessary. I make decisions on the technology used within the sites and maintain control over content appearance, subject to approval by the website owners.

On a weekly basis, I update investment rates for tnbonline.com. On a daily basis I complete work order requests as they come in and assist users with any website needs, create email forms complete with Javascript validation and create promotional ads as requested by either marketing department. Every day I also keep myself abreast of new web design methodology and best practices using several blog sites. I act as web consultant for both marketing departments.

Job Highlights:

• I implemented a website design for www.tnbonline.com that was created by a third party before I was hired.
• I created UI widgets for the main page of www.tnbonline.com and left-side navigation .Net user controls that appear on subsequent web pages.
• I created and installed an improved navigation interface for the tnbcard.com client center (now clientcenter.tnbcard.com since the purchase of TNB Card Services by Fifth Third Processing Solutions) using css flyout menus that resulted in easier site navigation for all clients.
• I worked with TNB developers to create a website with centrally-located client customization (www.gotomycard.com). Each client sees their logo or banner when they connect to the website, and all rate and disclosure info comes from a centralized source. This replaced an older website and saved hours of update work then being performed by the website administrator.

Skills Required: (Primary skills) HTML, CSS, Dreamweaver, Flash, web page design and layout, Photoshop, (secondary skills) Illustrator, Javascript, Jquery, classic ASP, ASP .Net using Visual Studio.
