Dr. Devon Payne-Sturge’s expertise shines through in Wix website redesign

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Devon Payne-Sturges to carry out her Wix website redesign and refining her professional brand as a researcher, professor, and environmental & public health scholar. The final product is a reflection of our thoughtful collaboration together.

Research & discovery

The research phase serves as the foundation of any successful project. Before diving into design, we defined goals, clarified key messaging, and identified target audiences. This process helps clients reflect on what they truly want, and my role is to guide that exploration.

Crafting a visual identity

The outcomes of the research and discovery phase come to life through brand boards featuring color schemes, typography, and design elements. After narrowing the options, we moved forward with the website layout.

Wireframes and website design

In this phase, I mocked up wireframes applying the color schemes and typography esablished in the previous phase. The wireframes, in short, help us visualize the site's structure and user experience before any changes are made on the website itself. I presented multiple design iterations and refined the layout based on Dr. Payne-Sturges’s preferences. This collaborative process ensured the site felt both professional and personal.

Writing & refining web copy

Strong design goes hand in hand with strong content. I worked with Dr. Payne-Sturges’s original website copy, incorporating her professional statement to ensure the text complemented the site’s design and purpose.

The final product

This Wix website redesign is a a polished reflection of Dr. Payne-Sturges’s work and expertise. By prioritizing collaboration, clarity, and user experience, we built a site that accurately represents her professional identity.

Wix website redesign: a before & after comparison

Before the redesign, Dr. Payne-Sturges’s website served as a basic online presence but lacked a cohesive brand identity and intuitive navigation. Her website didn’t fully reflect her expertise or professional impact. There was also limited access to her published work and updates.

In contrast, the updated website offers a modern, streamlined experience that enhances both usability and visual appeal. Additionally, the site meets a GTmetrix A rating, ensuring fast load times and strong performance.

The final result is a dynamic, accessible platform that truly reflects Dr. Payne-Sturges’s contributions and expertise.
