Specified mission statements for admin functionality.
As with many administrative tools the development team built individual tools to solve specific problems as the applications where being built. I led exercises to create a holistic, unified design which helped admins understand the various processes they could control as well as the current state of the system.
 
Implemented HTML prototypes for end-user, customer service and admin UIs.
The commerce applications were basically the back-end tools needed to manipulate the data and create pages. To sell the applications we needed demonstration prototypes. It was my job to create these, and in doing so I defined much of the functionality of the applications
