ANM Website Rebuild

Rebuilt the company website from concept through launch to create a more modern, scalable, UX-focused platform. The work combined design direction, content structure, taxonomy planning, modular page systems, visual standards, and long-term maintainability.

Context: The site needed stronger UX clarity, improved content governance, and a structure that could scale without increasing page-build friction.

Role: Creative direction, digital strategy, information architecture, modular system planning, and visual standards.

Actions: Re-architected content with custom post types, taxonomies, reusable sections, and more deliberate content pathways aligned to search visibility and internal publishing needs.

Outcomes: Estimated 30% increase in organic session growth over 12 months and an estimated 45% reduction in page-build friction.

Built practical workflows using Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Midjourney to support research synthesis, content planning, ideation, and production support.
