Work Experience >> USWeb/CKS
Strategic Consultant - Project Coordinator - Interactive Producer > 04/97-01/00 > Seattle, Washington
USWeb/CKS was in the year 2000 the world's largest publicly traded internet development company, with 10,000 employees and over 90 offices worldwide (changed company name to MarchFirst in 2000). I was among the first 150 employees of USWeb in 1997 as my previous company Cosmix was purchased to become its fourth office location. Our Seattle branch was known as a flagship office, with heavy ties to Microsoft and a staff of over 140 people at its peak.
I began my tenure with USWeb in 1997 as a Web developer and Coordinator of the maintenance department, building new Web sites and managing the hosting, maintenance and sales of small enhancement projects with previous Cosmix clients. I was promoted to Project Coordinator in mid-1997 and began to take the lead project management role in new client projects of various size and scope. I also played the Business Analyst and Interactive Producer role in some projects while managing others simultaneously. In 1999, I was promoted to Strategic Consultant performing strategy and account direction duties, and led Achieva.com, a large complex Dotcom engagement.
Title: Lead Site Builder > Maintenance Coordinator (Full-Time)
Role: Lead Site Builder and Maintenance Coordinator. My Web development role with USWeb initially continued from my role Cosmix Web Design. However, in addition to developing new client Web sites, I began my Project Management experience when I was charged with managing the hosting and maintenance of our entire current client's Web sites. I was responsible for ongoing client communications for all Web site hosting and application problems. I also began my up-sell experience here by generating between 5k and 15k a month in revenues from the sale and management of site updates and new site features and functionality.
