Secure The Village Desktop Redesign
Secure The Village is a CyberSecurity non-profit that aims to educate and support people on the ongoing challenges of cyber crime. They connect cybersecurity and privacy leaders, and create communities to accelerate progress toward a secure global village.
​
I led the design operations of Secure The Village’s design team to improve the accessibility of the desktop and mobile website. I provided coaching and consultation to designers, content writers and marketing managers, while leading my own research and redesign projects to develop designs, tools, policies and education to support the digital product team.
