Below you will find work examples that I've compiled complete with descriptions and explanations of my roles.
IceTime MN is a backyard ice rink building business. The website started as an informational site, and has evolved into an online store, rink estimate form, customer contact tool, and digital marketing launch point.
As a freelancer, I built their website from the ground up five years ago and continue to update and manage today. I am responsible for all the graphic design, messaging, page organization, SEO, etc.
As a leader in digital communication for the Minneapolis Public Schools Special Education department I am responsible for the management of the department's public facing website. The website includes key messaging, resources, contact information, helpful links, etc. for families, caregivers, and community members. The Special Education department provides a wide variety of services for over 6,000 students. As such, a well-thought out, organized website is a necessity for strategic communications.
For the past 10+ years I have been responsible for managing the content, design and organization of the department's website. I work with department leaders to develop messaging, resources, and links that align with our strategic goals. I have also developed a system for reviewing and managing content to ensure we have the most accurate, up-to-date information available for our audience.
