GT Website
This project's main focus was to rebuild the current website with a new Wordpress builder, Elementor, while maintaining the same content. The current site was unstable, so a clean development environment was mandatory.
The target audience was two-fold, those who use the company services and those who make public policy decisions for self-direction services. With the split target, the site included over 30 pages and 75 industry blog/thought pieces.

Design Ideology
When designing, I strive to use the least amount of plugins as possible. Ongoing website maintenance is aways in mind when designing. Limiting the amount of plugins and custom code makes maintaining the site significantly less invasive.
