Web Design
I design and develop websites for a diverse collection of individuals and organizations that include commercial, educational, and non-profit entities.
Feel free to use the tabs to the left to browse a few samples from my portfolio.
Deliverable Quality
Today, web designers must strive for maximum quality product while making designs deliverable to visitors of a wide variety of connection speeds.
I specialize in high-quality bandwidth-conscious site design and application development, and I ensure that my designs are appropriate for their audiences.
Availability
If you're interested in website design services for yourself, a friend, or an organization, please email me at eckertd@gmail.com with a short description of your ideas and what you'd like to see in your website.
Philanthropy
I enjoy enriching the global community through outreach and volunteer work, and I accommodate requests for pro bono services when possible, but my availability varies.
If you are in need of volunteer services for a project, please tell me more about your project.
If I am not available to help you, I'll point you in the right direction.
2SL Design Build
2SL Design Build is an architecture firm that provides complete construction and renovation services to the Raleigh metropolitan area.
My design provides 2SL with an attractive addition to its marketing plan.
Clients can tour previous projects and learn about 2SL before engaging the firm's services.
In addition to providing a comprehensive design for 2SL, I implemented a Google Groups interface that 2SL uses to communicate with its clients.

Elizabeth Langston
Elizabeth Langston is a writer of Young Adult Fiction in North Carolina, represented by the Marsal Lyon Literary Agency.
My website design provides Elizabeth with a clean, professional online presence.
This design incorporates whitespace and crisp graphical elements to emphasize the delivery of content.
Since Elizabeth's website has relatively few pages, a balance of design and content avoids "drowning out" the message with an overpowering display.

William G. Enloe High School
Enloe High School is a public secondary school in Raleigh, North Carolina that promotes excellence in arts, sciences, and academics.
I transformed Enloe's large, disorganized website into a stylish and organized product.
The new website uses common design elements and styles to simplify and unify the presentation of all electronic content and website categories.

Key Club at Enloe High School
The Enloe High School chapter of the Kiwanis International Key Club volunteers thousands of hours of service to its community.
My design and software allowed club members and officers easy usability and efficient functionality to manage membership, service projects, and hours.
This design served the Key Club for two years before evolving into the HostedGroups Management Service.
North Carolina Association for Scholastic Activities
The North Carolina Association for Scholastic Activities (NCASA) promotes academic excellence through statewide scholastic competitions.
I created a simple, clean, and scalable design for the NCASA that grew from originally only 3 pages to a moderate-sized website of 30+ pages.
The NCASA website uses common design elements and styles to unify content and help users easily locate information.
