In Portfolio class at the Art Institute of Houston you are assigned to create three different layouts for your portfolio. In my opinion, your layout is the most important part of your website. A potentional client/employer should be able to identify your capabilities as soon as they type in your web address and see your beginning page. This is one of the layouts I had before deciding to use the current one I am using.

Brazil travel website was a project for a CSS class that I had taken last year in 2008. The assignment was to choose a city/country/area and create a website over it, for people wanting to visit the area. The Jquery menu has several bugs and only works in firefox. I plan on taking this down sooner than later.

The Heart website was created for a psychology class. The main project for the class was to create a marketing campaign for a public service announcement. Women's heart disease is the #1 killer for women! I was in a group of about five other students to create this project. Being the only web designer in the group I took duties to create a website for the campaign.

I credit lorem ipsum for providing all this content! This was another project for the CSS class that I took last year. The whole idea of this project was to work with the css and the layout. Which is why we were instructed to use lorem ipsum for all the content. This is honestly a website bout nothing! So don't expect to much when navigating through it!

I don't even know if I knew what an external style sheet was when I created this website. This is the beginning days at The Art Institute of Houston. I checked out the code earlier and the navigation is done through a table, didn't even use a unordered list for this project. But again, I just want you to see from where I came from to where I am now. Always room to grow as a designer as I am doing now!

A final project for intro to scripting languages which was also know as intro to HTML. I used ImageReady for the navigation which I often used for all of my menus at the time. I didn't quite understand CSS and the capabilities of a table-less layout at the moment. But I'd like to think that I learned quick!

This first layout where I used an unordered list as my navigation and was starting to grasp the external stylesheet thing. Writing for the Web was created for a class I was taking called Writing for Interactive Media. The class was used to learn how to write for the web. Which, many people do not now that you should write differently on the web than you would if you were writing a book or a paper for class. A person reads 20% slower than they would on paper.
