Recomendations

while @ Interstate Batteries

“Matt brought a fresh perspective to the table which assisted the push for consistency across all of Interstate’s websites. He helped create an improved framework which helped solidify better coding practices across the content sites, thus improving multiple facets of the enterprise development process. Matt’s largest contribution came from his effective visual designs which included flash header designs, internal forms, and user experience suggestions. Users provided immediate positive response to the design changes. His diligence on providing clear comps for initial designs assisted in communication throughout the projects he worked on with our groups.”
