current work
I am currently in full time employment with IE, a digital agency based in Melbourne, Australia. Most of the work listed here I have done whilst with IE and it is listed here merely as an example of some of the projects I have worked on and in order to highlight some of the technologies I have used.
Movember – www.movember.com.
Technologies: PHP, Zend Framework, MySQL, ecommerce with various payment gateways including Paypal.
Movember generates an enormous amount of funds and awareness every year for cancer charities ($21million in 2008 and almost $29million so far in 2009), most of which is processed online. I have been a member of the small development team that has worked on Movember for the past 2 years. The site is built on a custom framework we developed which is based off the Zend Framework. The site includes custom build ecommerce in 5 different currencies with several payment gateways including Paypal’s Express Checkout API. Due to the enormous amount of traffic this site receives during the campaign, it is a great example of how powerful the Zend Framework is. Other features include facebook integration, a Google mapping feature and multi-language translation with inline CMS editing.
The Tyre Factory – www.ttf.com.au
Technologies: PHP, Drupal, MySQL.
The Tyre Factory is an Auto franchise operating across Australia. I was the sole developer on this project for which we utilised a Drupal solution, including implementing a custom designed theme and customising a variety of modules in order to allow google mapping and product filtering.
Guy Leech Fitness/Telstra – Live 8/12/09
Technologies: PHP, Zend Framework, MySQL and ecommerce with Paypal.
A new site currently in development for Telstra, providing fitness and health services for members. Solutions implemented in this project include ecommerce with Paypal’s Express Checkout API and our custom CMS solution also developed for Movember.

Technologies: PHP, Wordpress, MySQL.

Hoyts – www.hoyts.com.au
Technologies: C#.NET/Sitecore
One of Australia’s biggest cinema chains, I worked in the team to help improve the functionality of this Sitecore site. It was very interesting to get across a new technology and gave me the opportunity to become a Sitecore certified developer.
