Mitt Romney Presidential Campaign

Like the candidate or not, the Mitt Romney Presidential Campaign turned out to be an exhilarating project where I made life-long friends of all political affiliations.

As with any political campaign, everything was extremely fast-paced with same-day turnarounds and high tech requirements.

My work included site section redesigns, splash page promotional designs, jQuery, AJAX and various other visual interface, high exposure products.
