Vallejo Community Arts Foundation

VCAF needed a website redesign that my client wanted designed to be simple, elegant, and with simplified navigation compared to their old website.  I achieved this by doing the following:

  • Designed a Wix template with a slideshow banner featuring images that represent the organization's main services
  • Simplified the site architecture by reorganizing content into fewer sections
  • Reduced content on each page in order to achieve a balance between evocative images and text
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Testing and launch
  • Training client on site management
  •

    Mill Valley Philharmonic

    My client Richard Aldag, an arts consultant, asked me to redesign his client's website to feature new images, introduce their new artistic director, and make it possible to purchase tickets for their concerts online.  Here's what I did:

  • Designed a Wix template with a full width immersive slideshow to feature the orchestra up close and personal
  • Added a large cut out head shot of the new director to the home page to give the image pop
  • Redesigned the architecture to simplify the menu structure and to highlight the tickets page featuring links to purchase
  • Set up a PayPal account for donations and strategically added Donate buttons to site
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Testing and Launch
  • Current website: https://www.millvalleyphilharmonic.org

    Thomas Conlin, Conductor

    Conductor Thomas Conlin contacted me and asked me to redesign his website so that it would display correctly on desktop computers on all browsers, as well as on mobile devices.  His previous website, launched over ten years ago, was not responsive, and displayed differently on every platform.  Here was my solution:

  • Designed a Wix template with a centered content area in a color block frame with a fixed menu on the left side
  • Added a homepage slideshow featuring portraits of the conductor with quotes overlaid
  • Ported over the old site content to new pages that emphasized the text on a white background within the color frame
  • Retained the former site's graphic treatment of the website header and page titles in order to provide continuity 
  • Trained client on site management
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Testing and Launch
  • Current website: https://www.thomasconlin.com

    Richard Aldag, Composer

    My client Richard needed a website with a way to feature new works and performances of his work on the homepage.  He wanted a simple design that would allow him to make updates himself, primarily the announcements of new work.  I used a Wix template with a blog feature to achieve this.

  • Created a blog section of the site called Latest News and then added a slideshow of recent blog posts to the homepage
  • Blog posts are featured on the Latest News page as well as on homepage but are managed within Wix in one spot
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Testing and Launch
  • Trained client on site management, and in particular the blog post management, in order to keep site content fresh

    ChamberMusicSF mobile website

    ChamberMusicSF needed a stand-alone mobile website that my client wanted designed specifically to sell tickets to customers who would be clicking through to the mobile site from his e-newsletters that they might be reading on their phones.  Clarity, ease of navigation, inclusion of youtube videos, and PayPal integration was essential.  I achieved this by doing the following:

    Melissa MorganTang, Life Coach

    Designed and launched Melissa Morgan Tang's business website focused on Life Coaching and Peer Support.  As Melissa is working with people across the globe and hopes to continue expanding her horizons there, a website that could be easily accessed, updated, and feature an ever-growing archive of resources for her clients, was crucial.  She also had no website tech skills, so training her on how to manage the site after launch was a part of the project.  My involvement included:

  • Initial concept development
  • Building a template on the Wix platform with Melissa that contained all the features she wanted
  • Graphic design and curation of assets
  • Integration of Social Media platforms
