ILLUSTRATED STORYTELLING
Civic News Company / Votebeat, in partnership with The Guardian, conducted a year-long investigative journalism, multi-part story that was in need of complementary images. Lacking any defined illustrative style, they reached out for help developing a style that would increase readership while adding to their valuable storytelling.
These stories showed increased readership and were published to the front page of The Guardian and Votebeat.
FIND YOUR PLACE AT HFC
Previously, the admissions process at Henry Ford College was a complex, multi-page experience. By reorganizing information and redesigning the UX and UI, I was able to simplify the process using a "folder tab" system that lets students easily understand their process in a sleek, single-page experience. I utilized existing brand standards, and pushed them sylistically to a more modern web framework. This idea was carried over to the Transfer section, and coincided with digitizing our Student Handbook with custom CSS collapsible sections.
