Moveline
Developed initial version of Front-End Framework for Moveline application using Require.js, Backbone.js, Underscore.js (_), jQuery and Jasmine for frontend unit testing. The entire framweork was built using a Test First/Driven approach converting requirements into tests.

Display modules are interchangeable and cache for quick loading.

Technical Lead for the Rackspace website. Worked with expression engine, and a custom internal framework to deliver website updates in a timely fashion. Noticeable enhancements include implementing JsMin for Javascript and CSS decreasing the number of files downloaded and their sizes to increase overall site performance.

Worked as part of the Rackspace E-Mail team on the webmail project. My favorite work was on the pre-cacheing e-mail folder contents which enhanced the user experience by making mail folders load extremely fast.
