Photography

Aside from staying up to date with website tools and internet applications, I am also an amateur photographer. I use a Minolta that, I am proud to say, is actually older than me, and gives me full manual control. I am quite good with color shots and portraits, but my forte is black-and-white artistic photography. I have recently created a printable portfolio from shots created for a photography project in 2003 – check it out!

Website design & management

I am able to design websites from scratch using Dreamweaver, as well as managing existing websites also using Dreamweaver, a WordPress platform, or Drupal. Websites are provided with Web 2.0 tools for sharing and interactivity when required. These are some of the websites I have designed and maintained.

International Students’ Group
The International Students’ Group is a constituency group operating under the rules of the Simon Fraser Student Society. The Group is entirely funded by the Society, and run by student volunteers. The Group’s vision is to create a community with equal access to services and self-representation where international students succeed in work and academics, and its mission is to represent, advocate, organize events and educate the community to raise awareness of international students’ issues. The website was completely designed and maintained using Dreamweaver. I was responsible for the website from its inception (a few years ago) until April 2007.

BC Psychological Association

I was responsible for the project management for the re-design of this website, and I actively contributed to it designing a navigational chart and revising most of its content (policies included). I was also responsible for producing all marketing materials and internal communications for the Association, including managing e-mail campaigns, and I was in charge of managing all social media accounts. For more information on this work, and to see print samples, please contact me.

International Students’ Group Manuals
These volunteer training and recruitment materials were written during my second term as President of the International Students’ Group.
