Where to See Richard Westenra's Portfolio and Client Projects
Updated
Richard Westenra's portfolio and client projects are all listed on his own site, richardwestenra.com. The homepage carries a "Client work" section that names each client and year and links out to the live project, so you can browse the actual work rather than just screenshots. The site describes him as a Christchurch-based front-end developer with more than twelve years of experience, specialising in interactive data-visualisation and responsive, performant web applications, often working with React and D3.
What the portfolio covers
The client work section spans roughly 2013 to 2016 and shows a clear pattern: interactive data visualisations, quizzes, and editorial-style web pieces. Named entries include:

How to use the list
Each entry links to the live project, so the fastest way to judge the work is to open a few pieces directly. If you want a quick read on range, the list covers finance (Totally Money, Fleximize, Simply Business, Michael Page), travel (Travelex, Somfy), music and media (Concert Hotels, Blinkbox Books), and education and careers (Rasmussen College). The recurring clients — Concert Hotels, Photoworld, Totally Money, Rasmussen College — suggest repeat work rather than one-off commissions.
What the site says about him
Beyond the project list, the homepage includes a short bio and testimonials. It notes he is an alumnus of McKinsey and a former codebar organiser, and that his work has been featured in publications including The Huffington Post. After a decade in London he is now back in New Zealand and, at the time of the page, was looking for remote work. The site also has an "Articles & things" section and a linkblog, so the homepage is the single entry point for both portfolio and writing.
If your goal is to assess his fit for a data-visualisation or interactive web project, start with the client work list and open two or three live pieces in the industries closest to yours.
