Over 1 0 years Experience building W eb Design, 7 years P rocedural PHP/MySQL, M ultiple Industries 1 year p rimary focus on increasing o rganic website rankings (S EO) 3 years primary focus on E Commerce, User Interaction, Data Collection/Selling 2 years Responsive Web Design/HTML Mobile Sites

Previously salaried P HP Developer in an E -Commerce department specializing in marketing products through the internet, via Direct Marketing, Email Marketing, Affiliate Marketing and Google Adwords. Have learned and implemented multiple 3rd Part API’s, utilized R esponsive Web Design for mobile devices(tablets, phones) and have helped in the planning stages of most projects. In my free time I enjoy learning new technologies and programming languages/frameworks and keeping up with current design and development trends..

SKILLS & EXPERTISE

PHP, M ySQL Database Design, H TML, C SS, W eb Application Design, E -Commerce, S ocial Media, User Experience and Interface Design, L ogo/Graphic Design, V ideography/Video Editing Experience Developing on both Mac and Windows workstations. Have built and configured apache web servers(Windows) for testing and production, I have worked with linux servers(command line), and I have experience managing sites with Microsoft IIS web servers, setting up V PSs and A mazon Web Services. E-Commerce/Marketing: Knowledge of A/B Testing, designing email templates and Affiliate Marketing. I have programmed shopping carts from the ground up and have experience integrating websites with 3rd party shopping cards, using API’s to pass information to CRM’s and payment gateways(Authorize.net, Mal’z, Paypal, Foxycart), have some experience with WooCommerce and some exposure to Magento. Additionally, I have designed log-in functionality, admin sections, user information and edit pages and news/articles add/edit pages for websites and have implemented graph/charts and sortable tables for better display of website data and other analytics.

Developed a mobile browser app for Canton based music venue. Patrons are able to request songs for the DJ to play during their dance nights. Programmed an admin section to update status changes as songs are played or postponed. Emphasis on U ser Experience, both on a desktop/laptop and mobile devices. Something as simple as filling out forms needs to maintain high functionality on mobile devices. Otherwise, a company can lose sales AND customers because the time and thought wasn’t put into simplifying the process. I build with users who may have vision impairments and dated technology in mind. I enjoy learning new design and programming practices and languages in addition to my existing skills in H TML, CSS, PHP & MySQL, and jQuery a nd W ordpress.

Over the last few years, one of my main focuses have been m obile site design, and more importantly, r esponsive web design. I find it very practical to code a site once for viewing correctly across multiple devices (iPad, Tablets, smart-phones, desktop). This highly reduces the time it takes to update shared information between versions and reduces the chance for errors and troubleshooting. GOALS

To be a key player in the success of co-workers, managers and the company at which I work. I enjoy being the ‘go-to’ guy for technology related problems and feeling accomplished when my efforts help others reach their goals. Learn new technologies to achieve goals while developing code in a stable work environment. Chris Hattery • Updated August, 2015
