What can a keen eye can do for you?

Elevate your online presence with visually engaging, user-centric, and accessible web solutions by Jodi "Keen" Kuehn.

User Interface (UI) Design

It's not always easy to arrange content or data on a screen; I have an innate talent to take complicated tasks, forms, and table data and organize them to be easily consumable by the user.

Design Systems

I am a strong advocate for ensuring consistency and reinforcing brand recognition through a comprehensive design system that both designers and developers can use. Design systems not only act as a visual styleguide, they increase effeciency and make design and development more cost-effective.

Brand Identity

I can help establish your brand identity through the combination of company logo, corporate colors, typography, icons, taglines, and overall design aesthetics. A solid identity is one that defines a brand and its personality, and distinguishes it from competitors.

User Experience (UX)

With an emphasis on usability and empathy-driven design, I ensure that interactions are efficient, enjoyable, and meet the users' needs, creating higher consumer satisfaction and repeat business.

WCAG Accessibility

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are a set of international standards that provide a framework for making digital content more accessible to a diverse audience, including those with disabilities.

HTML5 + CSS

Custom solutions using modern and semantic HTML and CSS for creating fully-responsive websites that increase site performance, reduce bugs, and provide better native accessibility.

What people are saying...

Jodi, I wanted to say thank you for your work on the new design system.

Hi Jodi — thank you for allowing me to be a part of the design system meetings. Without them, I would not have as great an understanding of brand standards/best practices as I do now. And I appreciate your responsiveness and insight whenever I ask for your opinion on anything brand-related. You are my go-to for a reason. Thank you!

Why details matter

The difference between a Fortune 500 website and a small business site is not money or resources, but in the details.

Consistency:
Fonts, colors, buttons, form fields (having a solid design system is key)
Accessibility:
Color contrast, keyboard-accessible, screen-reader accessible
Economy of words:
Less is more when it comes to text on your website
Content design:
Font hierarchies, headlines, and bulleted lists to draw the reader in

You don't need a large team of designers and developers to have a strong, professional online presence.
You just need a Keen Eye.
