Workbench is a suite of content management modules for Drupal maintained by the folks at Palantir.

Eby-Brown is a privately owned convenience store supplier based in Naperville, IL. They wanted a complete overhaul of their website and the ability to manage and add content on their own. The site was built in Drupal and feature-rich, with jquery sliders, an interactive map, a contact form, embedded video, and a job board.

As lead designer on this project I developed the overall look and feel but worked closely with a team of art directors and developers to bring the site to life. It is CMS-driven, has three distinct sections — personal banking, business banking and wealth management — as well as some rich content like this jQuery checking account advisor and an ATM locator.

The design is clean, simple and approachable in the hopes that it will inspire someone to change their life for the better.

A dashboard, built as a Flex desktop application, to tie into an existing framework of tools. It aids the account representative during the collections process by displaying pertinent customer information and talking points in real time during phone call, and facilitating the scheduling of a payment. The reps said they found it easy to use and likened it to a video game... music to my ears!
