Experience

1. Web Manager

   National Kidney Foundation

   Sep 2021 — Present · New York, NY, US

   Manage a wide variety of digital web initiatives across the National Kidney Foundation. Daily responsibilities include completing a high volume of custom cross-department web requests. Requests range from creating new custom landing pages to complete content refreshes, site building, user management, analytics reports and more. Beyond web support requests, I also work closely with our Senior Web Designer to build and launch newly designed key landing pages. Built a custom-designed right-hand-sidebar, that includes a 5 star ratings widget that immediately drew high engagement and usage from our visitors, while introducing a new and important web engagement metric. Finally, I created a solution to enable Spanish translations across key content categories based on Drupal site building best practices.Led initiative to empower field staff across the organization to keep up-to-date field office webpages - through a comprehensive redesign and rebuilding of office webpages using Drupal components instead of HTML. This initiative enabled 25+ local offices to more effectively update webpages in real-time to coordinate with local marketing initiatives, while also significantly improving productivity across the web team.Led the organization of a site-wide Taxonomy that applies across kidney.org\'s primary content types. The final deliverable involved the creation of a complex Google Sheet that maps the new taxonomies to all of NKF\'s web content. This inter-department initiative required interfacing with departments across the organization, working with a taxonomy expert vendor and developing a deep understanding of NKF\'s web content models and sitemap.
