Case Study 01

Central Church of Christ Website (Minnesota)

A paid, 7-8 month web delivery for a Minnesota-based church organization. The project started with WordPress for discovery and template direction, then shifted to a coded website with structured hardcoded content for reliability and full control.

Timeline

Early 2024 - Mid 2024

Scope

10+ pages, multi-department structure

Status

Live production website

What I Built

  • Events, departments, and staff pages with role-based content grouping.
  • Prayer timings, services, educational offerings, and church history sections.
  • Department member history and poster/profile information pages.
  • Clean content hierarchy to keep non-technical visitors oriented.

Difficulties and Solutions

  • Most content was not available in reusable digital form, so information intake was manual and iterative.
  • Image volume was high; content and media had to be standardized before publishing.
  • Donation flow intentionally avoided payment gateway by client requirement; contact-based donation path was used instead.
  • Cross-checking facts required both client-provided details and additional online verification.

Vertical Learning Highlight

This project was the biggest jump in my content architecture and delivery maturity. I moved from theme/template-level work to coded, structure-first implementation where information design, content reliability, and long-term maintainability mattered as much as visual quality.
