cyklops offers design services. Design is creating according to a plan or planning out in the mind to achieve a purpose. Sometimes that purpose is to market a company, sometimes it is to inform an audience, and other times it is to make a product as simple to use as possible. Throughout cyklops' history, I have created projects for many uses, organizations, and audiences.

I have worked with multiple clients and designed and managed a variety of projects. I have maintained corporate brands and created consistent, clear communications in various media types including Web sites, printed marketing collateral, and trade show booth designs. Additionally, I've created interactive training pieces and flash animations. I have directed photo shoots. I've worked with sales teams on presentations and proposals, and I have planned marketing campaigns based on results from market research and media planning information. Web site work is always a highlight because it is always evolving and new techniques continue to emerge. I have designed and maintained a variety of sites including collecting information on site stats and ad clicks. The most recent sites I've created have been css-driven xhtml-based sites. I have also had the opportunity to work on the interface design of some web-based applications as well as software for mobile devices. It's all interesting work, and it's all design.

When I'm not working, food is my hobby. I've been collecting and reading books about food, food history, cookbooks, and food writing for years. I enjoy cooking food, reading about it, and especially tasting it. I have a blog, lisa is cooking, which helps me track what I've prepared and where the ideas originated.
