Dr. Wentz
Dr. Wentz website
I redesigned and developed Dr. Myron Wentz’s website to bring together his work in science, medicine, and humanitarian efforts. The goal was to create a modern, accessible experience that better told his story and made his accomplishments easy to explore.
I led the project from discovery through design, development, testing, and ongoing support.
I worked with Dr. Wentz’s personal assistant throughout the process to understand project needs, organize content, review design decisions, and keep the project moving toward approval.
The original Dr. Wentz website had become outdated, both visually and functionally. Its platform made updates difficult, and it no longer reflected the full scope of his work and accomplishments.
The challenge was to rethink the experience, improve accessibility across devices, and create a website that could tell his story more completely while remaining easy to navigate and maintain.
Before designing the site, I reviewed the existing experience to understand what needed to stay, what could be improved, and how the content could better tell Dr. Wentz’s story.
We organized the experience around four key areas of his life and work:
This gave the site a clearer structure and made it easier for visitors to explore his accomplishments and contributions.
I mapped user flows to understand how visitors would move through the site and find the information they needed.
From there, I created block frames and wireframes to establish the content structure, layout, and hierarchy before introducing visual design.
Once the structure was approved, I developed the visual direction using a combination of blue and green, paired serif and sans-serif typography, and imagery that supported the content.
The design focused on clear navigation, strong hierarchy, and a responsive layout that worked across desktop, tablet, and mobile.
With the design approved, I built the website in Webflow.
Using Webflow’s content management tools made it easier for the client to update content without relying on a dedicated development team.
Throughout development, I tested the site, fixed issues, and shared progress with the client. After launch, I provided editing guidance and continued to support updates as needed.
The redesigned website gave Dr. Wentz a more complete and accessible way to share his life, work, and accomplishments.
It brought his story into a clear, organized experience that was easier to navigate, worked across devices, and could be maintained over time.
The project brought together content, visual design, and usability to create a website that better reflected the person behind the work.
