Jenny Craig

Conducted training sessions for Omniture implementation to the client
Led the performance initiative by conducting full analysis and tuning of the web site:
- Optimized front-end architecture by moving all scripts to the bottom, keeping CSS at the top (stop any UI blockage)
- Lazy-loaded any components that weren't active on page intialization (only use stuff when you need it philosophy)
- Enforced the use of mod_gzip / mod_deflate on all static assets (decreases the size of all assets)
- Audited all Javascript for any CPU intensive code blocks (optimized DOM queries, loops, constructs)
- Unable to use sprites because of timeline constraints
Responsible for integrating YUI Compressor into the deployment process to achieve increased front-end performance

Fixed a plethora of Javascript and CSS bugs (I think I had the most fixes done by the end of the project based on SVN metrics--I was heroic)
