The Challenge

The existing site no longer reflected Pilot’s brand or the needs of its users. Information was hard to find, accessibility was low, and content wasn’t built to scale with the business.

Outdated Experience

The site was difficult to navigate and visually inconsistent, creating a labyrinthine experience that obscured information for key demographics.

Accessibility Gaps

An inaccessible experience created barriers for users and introduced risk across the organization.

Content That Didn’t Scale

Content lacked structure and consistency, making it difficult to update, reuse, and govern. This was especially notable in the extensive FAQ system.

My Role

I led content design and UX writing for the site redesign—aligning with design and development to deliver a scalable and accessible experience that served all customers and their needs, from weekend trippers looking for snacks to long-haul drivers planning interstate fueling routes.

  • Led content strategy, information architecture, and UX writing across the experience
  • Defined content models, templates, and governance for scalability
  • Partnered with design and engineering to prototype and build landing pages in Figma
  • Established and scaled a consistent voice and style via updating internal brand guidelines
  • Collaborated with stakeholders across product, marketing, and legal to organize information
  • Wrote and edited copy for all site landing pages and navigation
  • Developed campaign copy and creative ideas for ongoing brand initiatives
