Content designer

Responsive. Strategic. Collaborative. I believe clear, concise, and accessible language empowers users. Equitable access is possible when users are part of the design process.

A little bit about my work…

Onboarding Tooltips

I created the framework for product tour tooltips for a major redesign of a mobile app.

  • Extensive research: competitive, usability, best practices
  • Cross-team collaboration: receiving feedback, defending our design, solutioning for a wide range of use cases
  • Accessibility: close collaboration with a11y consultant, going beyond WCAG requirements
  • Documentation: detailed style guide and specs to create a highly desirable reusable component

CMS Migration

I co-led a CMS migration project at a college library. In this role, I had the opportunity to:

  • Generate buy-in for consistent layout across guides
  • Establish best practices for naming of assets and reusable blocks
  • Advocate for plain language for our non-expert users
