Digital Storytelling: Building Digital Space For Women in Kenya

Objective: As the Web Development Lead for the Northern Council For Global Cooperation, I spearheaded a transformative project, collaborating with Kenyan women to amplify their stories. Utilizing Figma and Webflow, I innovatively storyboarded, wireframed, and designed an immersive interactive digital storytelling space.

Figma: Initial storyboarding and wireframing.

Webflow: Converting Figma into a live site and adding animations to increase interactive feel.

Collaborative Storytelling: Worked closely with women in Kenya to translate their stories into a captivating digital format, ensuring authenticity and empowerment.

Innovative Design: Leveraged tools like Figma and Webflow to storyboard, wireframe, and design an interactive digital space, enhancing user engagement and immersion.

Cross-Cultural Collaboration: Facilitated a seamless collaboration between Yukon-based teams and Kenyan participants, fostering a cross-cultural exchange of narratives and experiences.

User-Centric Approach: Ensured the digital storytelling space was user-friendly and accessible, emphasizing a user-centric design that prioritized inclusivity and cultural sensitivity.

Project Management: Orchestrated the project timeline, ensuring milestones were met and maintaining open communication channels between teams to achieve project objectives efficiently.
