Industry Experience

    Website Design & Development

    During my studies, I had one semester called Digital Intelligence. I developed a website from scratch using WordPress, a responsive website for a baby products brand. The project involved planning the website structure, designing intuitive user journeys, building responsive pages, and organising content to create an engaging experience across desktop and mobile devices. I also optimised the website pages to improve usability and search engine visibility, created and managed the brand’s social media pages, designed engaging social media content, and launched Google Ads campaigns to increase online visibility and reach the target audience. This project strengthened my skills in website development, UX/UI design, SEO, social media marketing, Google Ads, and digital marketing strategy, while demonstrating my ability to deliver an end-to-end digital presence for a brand.
