UX Design for Customer Conversion and Stakeholder Value​

Improving website design for all users and University stakeholders, Webster University, 2021-2023
Access Accounts - Helping Users Get Connected
Situation: After witnessing two on-campus adjunct faculty struggle to log in to their University Connections accounts on the first day of class, I Designed and created a new Access Accounts page, which offers users quick access to key Webster services on a Google-indexed, mobile-optimized page.

Analysis: Getting connected, even on-campus, can be a pain point for both students and faculty, and this page is a lasting technical solution to a constant customer service issue. I 
identified an unmet market need for an improved external-facing, SEO-friendly login page, and I worked to create and launch a new page that would connect users to essential University Services.

Result: Since its launch in Spring 2022, regular traffic on this page has more than doubled, with peak access of over 1,000 page views per day during August 15-19, 2022, coinciding with the start of Fall 1 term.
Original web page - Very text-heavy, information focused on users' first-time access
Access Accounts, summer 2021
Revised web page - less text, improved button links to key services, information focused on returning users and users acquired through search
