Academy of Art University

The Challenge:

The Academy of Art University was founded in 1929 and is one of the largest art and design schools in the US. Located in San Francisco, the AAU has a large percentage of international students participating in the Student Visa Program. Due to the events of 9/11 fewer visas are available to allow classes in-person. The Academy also wanted to open up their delivery of art and design courses to a global market.

The Solution:

A fully online campus was developed for the Academy of Art University. The e-Learning Delivery System was a combination of an enterprise web application provided by WBT Systems, and a custom designed website architecture and user interface design. Custom web application components were also developed to support the course delivery system. The assignment included media rich online course development, multimedia presentations and web-based content management/publishing prototyping.

The AAU started delivering online courses in June of 2002 and is currently offering over 500 art and design courses online.

Young Presidents' Organization

The Challenge:

YPO is the largest membership organization of company presidents and CEOs in the US. The membership is over 8,000 business leaders worldwide with a total assets topping 2.1 trillion dollars. The nature of the organization demanded an internationally accessible, robust, gateway for member interaction and services. YPO had considerable amounts of legacy technology and content to transition.

The Solution:

Develop a new website, logic, security and data architecture designed for international business leaders. This development included a complete redesign of YPO web services and business management systems working with TMAresources. My role was to provide a new information architecture including application logic schemas and user interface design. The Young Presidents' Organization website redesign was a complete re-architecture of the member's private website gateway and online services.
