Project Overview

Overview A modular single-page layout that mirrors the primary site experience while giving space for deep-dive case studies, long-form storytelling, and interactive embeds.
Problem / Opportunity / Need Showcase complex projects in a standalone environment without losing the visual identity or responsive behavior of the core portfolio.
Target Audience Prospective clients, hiring managers, and collaborators evaluating design process, technical depth, and narrative clarity across flagship engagements.
Scope / Boundaries Focused on front-end presentation, reusable content blocks, and integration with existing brand assets; excludes backend service work or CMS authoring workflows.

Goals & Objectives

Learning Objectives Establish reusable patterns for single-page storytelling, refine responsive behavior across complex layouts, and document decisions that inform future component libraries.
Business Goals / KPIs Increase qualified portfolio inquiries by 20% quarter-over-quarter, improve time-on-page for case studies, and enable faster stakeholder reviews via modular content updates.

Tools & Technologies

Tools Used (Universal) Figma Miro Notion Adobe Creative Cloud Google Workspace Loom
Technologies / Frameworks HTML5 CSS3 JavaScript ES6 Chart.js D3.js Responsive Component Libraries

Research & Discovery

Needs Analysis (Instructional Design, Teaching) Conducted stakeholder interviews and classroom observations to align learning targets with instructional gaps.
Baseline Metrics (Process Analysis) Benchmarked current completion rates, assessment performance, and process cycle times to establish success criteria.
User Research / Personas (Web Design, Graphic Design) Developed personas for learners, facilitators, and executives, mapping visual preferences and accessibility needs.
Data Sources (Dashboards / Data) Aggregated LMS analytics, survey responses, CRM insights, and operational KPIs into a centralized reporting layer.

Planning & Strategy

Methodology (ADDIE, Agile, etc.) (Instructional Design, PM) Blended ADDIE rigor with two-week Agile sprints to move from discovery to implementation without losing momentum. Facilitated sprint reviews and retrospectives that converted feedback into prioritized backlog items. Maintained a single source of truth for requirements, prototypes, and QA checklists inside the shared workspace.
Sitemap / Information Architecture (Web Design) Crafted a modular IA that directs learners through paths, resource hubs, and assessment touchpoints with minimal friction.
