What began as a freelance assignment during my university studies evolved into a comprehensive digital overhaul for a bespoke jewelry designer. The primary objective was to transition the brand from a limited legacy platform (Blogspot) to a scalable, professional web presence that accurately reflected the high-end nature of the products.

Key Contributions:

  • Platform Migration: Executed a full migration of historical content from Blogspot to a self-hosted, custom-built WordPress environment, ensuring zero data loss and preserving link integrity.
  • UI/UX Design: Collaborated closely with the lead designer to translate hand-drawn pencil sketches into digital assets. Used Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to create custom graphics and UI elements that aligned with the brand's aesthetic.
  • SEO & Discoverability: Implemented a foundational SEO strategy, optimizing site architecture, meta-tags, and image alt-text, which significantly improved organic search visibility for local keywords.
  • Integration: Established a marketing ecosystem by integrating social media feeds and connecting MailChimp for automated newsletter campaigns.
