Web Design and Development
US Private Client (USPC)
Online investment products Merrill Lynch Direct and Merrill Lynch Online were designed as competition from day traders. Table layouts were built during the Netscape Navigator/IE wars. The archived URL shows exactly how we coded back then, while the logged in navbar is a small sample of a much larger and complicated navigation system.
Popup Windows
I designed and developed these for direct mail campaigns sending potential customers to new products and services.
Banner Ads
I designed a ton of these for the USPC public pages. Other campaigns include Wired and Barron's.
ML Today Newsletter
Editorials sent as subscriber based HTML email marketing newsletter, eventually made obsolete by company blogs.
Chicago Board Options Exchange
We built an options tutorial navigation system with 22 second-level options. Links in the HTML prototype aren't functional.
TRAKRS
Online marketing tool designed to load faster and look different from Merrill's other USPC sites.
