About

As the Research and Data Communications Associate at Opportunity Insights, I created and established updated presentation templates for organizational use.

Before

While there was a pre-existing brand DNA that provided guidelines for color scheme and font families, the slides in use were a combination of slides created before the brand DNA was establish and after, with inconsistent fonts, margins, icons, and sizing. When creating new content for presentations, the lack of an established style guide meant that even new slides did not appear to be necessarily consistent with the entire existing deck.

After

I established updated design standards using existing brand DNA that created consistency across slide types. By setting standard margins, fonts (sizes, colors, and bolding standards), icon families, footers, content templates and more, I empowered our team to maximize efficiency when creating new content for high-profile presentations, and elevated our brand voice as a whole.
