The User Interface to Singlefin's multi-tiered Gateway Service, consisting of seven product offerings and serving a 35,000+ user base. It is written primarily in PHP and uses a 100+ table MySQL database as its primary data source. I created the UI for three product offerings – Lite Email Filter, Enterprise Archive, and FreeDNS.

I served as principle system architect and design lead. This project uses a PostgreSQL database, Java and JSP, XML, XSLT, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and was developed in part using the NetBeans Integrated Development Environment.
