Project Details

My goal was providing a new and enhanced digital presence that focused on quick access to all visitor’s paths while introducing updated brand guidelines throughout. I leveraged extensive user research to build interactive prototypes, optimized user flows, and designed a new UI that corrected prior usability and accessibility issues with a particular focus on the mobile experience. This new design simplified the end-to-end search experience and optimized the category pages to better move users through the website and direct them to the products they need faster.
