Parsons The New School for Design

Project Lead/Manager

We are starting to work on a complete overhaul of the Parsons website - front and back. Parsons is part of The New School where I am part of the core university web team…which means that we have a university-wide CMS that we get to implement and play with. We also have lots of technology we have developed for other schools that we can apply to the Parsons redesign.

Some of the tasks include, but are not limited to, setting a timeline, managing resources, running meetings, hiring consultants, communicating to stakeholders…and that’s just for the project planning stages. Future tasks will include working on IA, UI, UX, art direction, and editorial oversight. My roles in this project are similar to the ones I have for the other college websites I run at The New School: Eugene Lang College and The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music.

Here is a screengrab of the current site that I manage:
