I develop hand crafted, web based applications.
A selection of websites that I have developed are listed below.
Displayed with each website is a series of icons indicating the standards adhered to, or the testing that has been performed.
Please visit this legend for a description of each icon.

scafighting.com
http://www.scafighting.com/ This is a custom CMS site for a group of SCA members who wanted to post instructional articles about their medieval sword fighting. There is much under the surface of this site that warrants attention. I will be writing a full page article soon about why this site represents the state of the art of a standards compliance, accessibility, and search engine friendliness.

admin.nceo.info
http://admin.nceo.info/ For NCEO I developed an administrative website that the centre staff use on a daily basis as their primary tool for data entry and work flow administration. This is a secure site and is not publicly accessible, if you are interested in this type of site, please give me a call and I'll can walk you through a few examples.
data.nceo.info
http://data.nceo.info/ I also developed a public "Data Viewer" web site for NCEO that allows public access to the NCEO data. Visitors can use various report designers to develop flexible views of the data. This is a public website, give it a try!
NCEO is funded by the US federal government which mandates accessibility requirements for use by persons with disabilities. The subject matter of these sites is 100% concerned with education of persons with disabilities so the Accessibility requirements were set very high. Here is the feedback I received from the client:
"I wanted to thank you for the awesome work you've done on the Data Viewer. I'm especially happy that we pretty much breezed through the accessibility hurdle with our federal officer. If you hadn't stayed on top of accessibility issues from the beginning, we'd be in a pickle."
