    Heavens Creative is an international religious creative agency focused on helping individuals discover and express their talents while supporting brands through creative direction, branding, and digital growth.

    For this project, I handled the end-to-end website process, including UI/UX design in Figma, website development in WordPress using Elementor Pro, and website copywriting. I crafted clear, purpose-driven copy that communicates the agency’s mission, values, and services in an authentic and engaging way.

    In addition to design and development, I generated custom visual assets using AI, ensured responsive performance across devices, and applied on-page SEO best practices to support visibility and usability.

    For Almira Medical, a private longevity-focused health clinic based in Toronto offering advanced medical screening, preventative care, and personalized wellness services, I led the full website design and development process.

    I designed the site’s UI/UX Figma, developing layouts that clearly communicate the clinic’s services and expertise. I then built the site in WordPress using Elementor Pro, implementing responsive pages, service sections, and information architecture that aligns with the brand’s needs. I also created custom visuals with AI where appropriate and applied on-page SEO practices to improve search visibility. The project spanned three weeks and involved continuous iteration to ensure both clarity and performance.

    For Johnwood Hotels, an award-winning hotel offering modern rooms, dining, event spaces, and hospitality services, I was responsible for the development of the website.

    Working from pre-existing designs, I translated the visual concepts into a fully functional WordPress site using Elementor Pro and custom code, implementing menus, accommodation pages, amenities, and booking integrations. My work ensured the site was responsive, easy to navigate, and aligned with the hotel’s brand identity.

    paper Rova Unify Website Design and Development

    https://www.twine.net/signin

    I was responsible for the end-to-end design and development of the company’s website. Rova Unify is a Canadian-based unified communications and audiovisual solutions provider, helping organizations including the Canadian Government create reliable and effective collaboration environments for hybrid and in-office work.

    I led the UI/UX design process in Figma, crafting intuitive layouts, visual hierarchies, and responsive designs that aligned with Rova Unify’s brand and business goals. Once the designs were finalized, I developed the website on WordPress using Elementor Pro, building custom templates, interactions, and content structures to ensure a polished and scalable final product.

    To support the project’s visual storytelling, I also generated custom imagery using AI tools, enhancing key sections with unique visuals that elevated the site’s overall aesthetic. Additionally, I implemented on-page SEO best practices to help improve search visibility and user engagement over time.

    The project spanned few months, during which I collaborated closely with stakeholders to refine features, iterate on design feedback, and ensure that the final deliverable effectively communicated Rova Unify’s services to their target audience.
