About Max
Max began his internet career as a web researcher with the University at Buffalo Web Team, an award winning electronic media and marketing unit. He benchmarked best practices in higher education web development, and also designed interfaces for the University at Buffalo website, including the first university-wide online photo database. He has also been an interactive designer for the new media division of an advertising agency in New York, and a creative director for an internet start-up with clients such as Hewlett Packard and CMS Inc. Max was also director of web development for his undergraduate alma mater, the College of William and Mary, in which he led the college-wide redesign effort and also implemented the first content management system for university relations and news services.
His experience with the internet has spanned several industries, and his expertise ranges from web design and development to strategy, e-communications planning, interface and interactive design, multimedia development, content management design and implementation, programming, photography and videography, and the latest techniques in CSS and web accessibility. His work has been awarded Yahoo's site of the day, several CASE (Council for the Advancement and Support of Education) awards, a DesignForte award from NetDiver, and a University and College Designer's Gold award.
