About Me
I am a Front-End Developer for Kansas.gov, the Official Web site of the State of Kansas. I’ve been working here since the summer of 2004 and have found the type of work that we do to be very rewarding. In addition to web design I have also served as a Project Manager on numerous web applications. Our primary goal is to make interacting with state government easier for citizens and business in the State of Kansas.
I’m a native Kansan married to a native Missourian. My wife and I have been married for nearly 14 years and have two adorable little girls. I am a graduate of Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri with a B.S. in Industrial Technology with an emphasis in Technical Graphics and a minor in Theater. I am also a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps infantry where I served as a Light Armored Vehicle commander in 4 operations in several western Africa countries

User Friendly Website Design
A well designed online presence can effectively promote your brand message and deliver a pleasant user experience. Websites are not only to be visually pleasing but must be user friendly (easy navigation and links, content placed where it flows smoothly, etc), Search Engine Optimized as well as Cross browser compatibly (Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer 6/7, Safari, etc).
As I design and build your custom website, I strive to meet these needs and stay focused on your goals and objectives.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Marketing
The architecture of search engines is a live animal that changes every day, and dead are the days where flooding a site’s code with meta tags was all you needed to boost rankings.
An SEO-friendly design plays a large role in increasing rankings, and not only do I remain abreast of the ever-changing structure of search engines, but I also design or redesign your site according to these changes, using original and hand-coded design techniques that maximize SEO effectiveness.
HTML E-mail Marketing
E-mail campaigns are an essential part in a successful marketing strategy. You can use E-mail campaigns to keep in touch with your clients, introducing new products, new features, new events, sales and promotions, etc. I design and build the E-mail campaigns so they are easily editable and templetized, which makes it an ease to handle multiple E-mail campaigns and to meet harsh deadlines.

Testimonials
“The AGA Topeka Chapter acquired the services of James for the development and maintenance of its web site. James was easy to work with and particularly creative in his development of our web site. He has an excellent working knowledge of both the software and the technology and has educated us to the point where we are able to maintain the day-to-day changes needed to keep the site current while relying on James for more difficult modifications. To date, this web site has won TWO NATIONAL AWARDS, first in 2006, then again in 2009. These awards were presented on the basis of overall look and feel of the site, ease of navigating the site, consistency of the site from page to page, and the overall professionalism in the page presentation. James’ work has brought, and continues to bring, national recognition to our local chapter due to his skill and dedication in representing his clients to the world in the best and most professional manner possible.” ~ Walt Darling, www.agaks.org
