About Page

Every congress person’s site has an About page. It is one of the three most visited pages on their site. The challenge here is largely one of photo editing. To find imagery that not only espouses the best qualities of the member or senator, but to also consider the quality, lighting, coloration, and framing of each image, on both desktop and mobile.

“Down and Dirty” Style Guide

Turnaround times in Congress are extremely tight and rarely is there time for conceptualization or experimentation. Instead, I made “quick and dirty” style guides to help staffers cohesively maintain the look and feel of their site and communications.

The page includes navigation links like About, News, Help, and Contact, with a prominent photo of Gillibrand smiling. The site has a red alert banner at the top warning about potential damaging weather conditions in New York City. Below the main image, there are sections about topics like the economy, transparency, and military justice, and a video of Gillibrand testifying in Congress is visible.
