The challenge

A clear purpose for the website.

Give a specialist publication a useful life beyond the inbox, with past issues and supporting resources that readers can find and return to.

The approach

Design and engineering, together.

Jordan designed and built the website, publishing system, and email workflows around a weekly editorial rhythm. The public archive sits alongside role teardowns and career maps, turning individual issues into a navigable body of work.

What was built

A working product, end to end.

The product provides a consistent home for the newsletter, its archive, and a growing set of specialist resources. It demonstrates the full path from publishing content to making it available on the web and by email.
