Jackie shares on web product development and online strategy.

About Me

Hello, thanks for dropping by. My name is Jackie Miao. I am a web strategist who specializes in the production of mission-critical, enterprise-level, and high-traffic web/digital products for Fortune and brand-name companies. Although I have a range of skills my forté is in planning, production and project management. In my decade-long career I have worn many hats ranging from being a designer, developer, planner, information architect, producer, project manager, and account manager with some interesting stories to share along the way! It might also comfort some to know that beyond the skills that were acquired over time, I am a certified PRINCE2 Practitioner as well.

THE DOT.COM BOOM WITH THE AMERICANOS
My career began humbly in New York’s Silicon Alley and Financial District in 1998, where my contribution to the industry is most noted on the British Airways account at Agency.com. My involvement on the Concorde project as Prototype Developer and lead Site Builder helped win the agency a nationally-coveted ADDY Award for Excellence in New Media from the American Advertising Federation and some of my other work in New York include websites for Texaco, Compaq, Citibank, Wine Enthusiast, Travel Dynamics, and Sean Kenniff. I was also featured in this New York Times article, The Streets Are Paved with PCs.

After a few years working and networking in New York and California, I moved back to Malaysia to start my own business.

CONSULTING IN THE FAR EAST
In 2002 I founded Centroworks Sdn. Bhd., a strategic web consultancy and development company servicing the luxury hospitality and travel sector in the Asia Pacific region. As Executive Director, I oversaw new business development, strategy and planning, project management, and technical production for 6 years.  Our two main clients were FACB Berhad and Tradewinds Corporation. I enjoyed having the insight into the Asian market during my time there, but have always wanted to cover the European market.

ENJOYING THE ENGLISH WEATHER
So in mid-2007, I arrived in London for a change of scenery. Between December 2007 and May 2008, I freelanced as Senior Interactive Producer/Project Manager at McCann Erickson London, part of McCann Worldgroup, an IPG company. My services have been used on HP, Genworth Financial, Barclay’s Premier, Statoil, Nestle, Cooperative Retail, UPS, BMW Bikes, UNEP, Mastercard, L’oreal, Cemex, Sabic Corporation, Evening Standard and McCann Erickson internal projects.
