From May of 2008 to January of 2009, I was a web and marketing intern at ChoicePay Inc., an electronic payment service. I was brought on to aid both the marketing department and their web developers. The marketing side of this job required me to work with existing design resources and to create new resources such as email templates and marketing materials. The web development side of this internship required extensive use of HTML and CSS to clean up both the code and design of ChoicePay’s existing web pages and payment systems. The developers and programers on staff taught me a lot about web development procedures and practices, from development to implementation, and even some handy tools and techniques.
While I was at ChoicePay Inc. I also redesigned their website, www.choicepay.com, using strict HTML and CSS. Unfortunately, ChoicePay Inc. was bought by Tier Technologies before my site design could be implemented. Still, my time there was highly valuable for the skills and experience I gained.
