At CONMED, I designed and managed CONMED.com across global markets, supporting product discovery, campaigns, multilingual content, and ongoing UX improvements. My redesign, SEO, content, technical optimization, and UX work contributed to 81% engagement growth, 20% annual traffic growth, and lead generation growth from approximately 600 to nearly 12,000.
I lead website work from research, user flows, information architecture, and Figma prototypes through responsive implementation, Sitecore delivery, testing, launch, and design QA. I use GA4 data, search performance, user-journey insights, and stakeholder feedback to improve usability, navigation, search visibility, and conversion paths.
Previously at Smartworks Solutions, I designed and developed responsive digital experiences with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Bootstrap, Sitecore, Optimizely, and WordPress. I also bring a foundation in graphic design, producing brand-aligned marketing and advertising materials across digital and print.
