Direct-MS

web/interactive

Direct-MS is a local charity for Multiple Sclerosis. The website at the time had an outdated look and the functionality was preventing users from absorbing and sharing the important information that could help many people affected by MS. My goal was to create a website with a straight-forward, user-friendly design. I enjoyed creating the site map and organizing large amounts of information to improve the user experience.
