SoWork Marketing Website

The SoWork marketing website was a fun project that went all the way from napkin sketches and Figma designs to assisting the development team with Sanity.io and Next.js implementation, styling React components, setting up Bootstrap and more.

I would later return to the project to help implement Tailwind CSS, develop new React components and webpages, write case study articles, create new visual assets, and help storyboard and optimize video content.
