The challenge

Lumen is a leadership consulting practice built on deep, nuanced experience. In conversation, the work is clear and compelling. On a website, it risked feeling abstract.

The challenge wasn’t creating more content — it was organizing the thinking. We needed to identify who Lumen serves, articulate the types of leadership support offered, and structure the site so visitors could quickly recognize themselves and their needs.

Credible, but not corporate. Thoughtful, but not dense.

My role

  • Partnered closely with the founder to clarify positioning and voice

  • Identified core audiences and defined service categories

  • Wrote and designed the website from the ground up

  • Refreshed the logo and refined the visual system

  • Designed trade show materials and supporting collateral

How it came together

We started by identifying key audience groups and mapping the types of leadership support Lumen provides. From there, the website was structured so visitors could navigate by industry or by service — making it easier to find relevance quickly.

The visual identity was refined rather than reinvented. A logo refresh, cleaner typography, and a simplified layout gave the brand more confidence without losing its foundation.

The result is a website that feels clear and grounded — one that lets the expertise lead, while making it easy for the right clients to see themselves in the work.
