The purpose of the Case Study page is to provide integrated examples of the concepts, methods, techniques, and procedures descibed and presented on my web page. I have found the best way to prove the efficacy and utility of my collected work is to provide demonstrators that can be used to evaluate and replicate what I do. While the majority of my work is based on industry standards and tradecraft, there are number of methods and processes I have created. Some are described in detail... and some are not. I hope you find value in these case studies, I had fun building them!
