Project Oveview

The current website was outdated and needed a refresh to accomplish the current marketing objectives. The primary goals were to strengthen online presence, build brand awareness and provide an overview of the bank’s services in order to provide credibility to their clients and prospects. 

My Role: Lead Art Director. My task was to redesign the entire website and make it mobile-responsive.
