For four years, I worked as an Art Director and User Experience Expert with Cap Gemini Ernst & Young's design studio called DareStep. I started in December of 2000 where I conceptualized and designed B to B Global Marketplaces, Reporting Tools, Intranets, created branding for SAP and Plumtree Portals and have been the sole Information Architect on my projects. I also constructed Style Guides, for clients, vendors and their developers to follow, using my designs and guidelines. I acted as a leader of Web site analysis sessions and managed developers and was the sole liaison between my client's corporate departments and business owners. I traveled extensively, both domestically and internationally, and worked directly with clients and vendors on-site. Some clients I served included Clear Channel Communications, Delphi Automotive, Alcoa, Coface.
