In November of 2023, I noticed most of our web related work was a lot of band-aid fixes that left us many problems later. Our web design was outdated, and the structure of the website was complication. Since I had an interest in UX, I spearheaded a project to refresh the website.
Website Design Refresh Launch, November 2023
After pitching my ideas to management, I was met with excitement at the ideas. We started with the donations and giving section, and expanded to education as well.
While there is still a lot to be done, I am very proud of the sections of the website we have redesigned, and my work was recognized with a promotion to UX/UI and Digital Production Designer to continue the work I had started.
Since then, I have been designing and building out the site, starting with overseeing an Information Architecture review with contracting group IMedia to expand this restructuring project to the entire site. Alongside the review, I have been updating, maintaining, and refreshing sections of the website, continuing work with the Giving Microsite and expanding to the Education & Families Microsite, the Merchandise Store, and more.
Audio Webhosting
I hosted and produced a podcast pilot called Yes, We Exist Podcast, in partnership with the student group Disability: Identity, Culture, & Education (DICE) from the University of Maryland, College Park. My co-host, Caliph Riley III and I interviewed disabled students about their experiences with their disabled identity and attending school at a largely inaccessible campus.
