Automatic upgrades

An industry-leading feature, automatic upgrades allow elite loyalty members to use contactless check-in features without sacrificing potential upgrades. Hotel guests cite this as a key (no pun intended) factor in their preference for front-desk check-in. In a collaborative effort across multiple pods, I provided onboarding and celebratory messaging across platforms and throughout the user journey.

2021 new property websites

In April 2021, I took over as content lead for the strategy and design for the migration of more than 100 luxury hotel websites using multiple content management systems and structured content.

A map highlights places of interest — where to work, […]

The Orpheum Theatre Group

The Orpheum Theatre Group launched its new website in June, 2017. My participation in this project began at the request for proposals stage. As a fun creative touch, we created a playbill-style handout in lieu of our standard profile book. During the discovery phase, I created a survey to dispatch to the theatre’s email list, […]
