Comeback America Initiative

For this project I teamed up with social media strategist Chad Capellman and Australia-based web designer Megan Ellison to develop a microsite about fiscal education for the Comeback America Institute.

As a political action brochure, the microsite functioned as a hub of information about the nation’s finances, linking out to the Comeback America Initiative’s “Fiscal IQ” survey. I also built a “debt countdown” clock that calculated the nation’s debt in real-time.
