As lead designer for U of T's digital creative services I contributed to several essential projects. Most notably was the redesign of utoronto.ca, the primary communications channel for prospective students, current students, faculty and alumni. With millions of visitors annually from across the globe this redesign is a critical component to the university's digital strategy.

With the volume of mobile traffic increasing by the month it's crucial the site perform well on phones. This is especially true for U of T News stories; most of which are discovered via social sharing on mobile.

U of T Media Room

Providing media access to 1000+ academic experts. Fast, every day.

News organizations need experts to speak on a variety of topics every news cycle. Thankfully U of T has no shortage of academic experts. The challenge is connecting these two groups as quickly and easily as possible. In an effort to expedite connections we built the Media Room; a full service site that provides access to a database of academics, recommended breaking news experts and topical press releases.
