Website project management, website performance optimization, usability and accessibility remediation, graphic design and even video comping and editing.

    I guide production—whether it’s a website, campaign, or video—while keeping communication open and quality high.
  5. Learning & Improving:
    We review results against the original goals, and I apply those lessons to strengthen outcomes moving forward.
