Digital Coast

A national environmental agency needed to modernize its decade-old coastal data platforms, a suite of tools used by planners, researchers, local governments, and environmental professionals. The systems were vast, fragmented, and inconsistent, with uneven UX patterns and growing technical debt.

As Senior Business Analyst and Project Manager with NOAA/Lynker, I coordinated a multi-year modernization effort across hundreds of pages, tools, datasets, and internal workflows.

• Coordinated modernization of major coastal data tools and public-facing platforms
• Improved UX, accessibility, data clarity, and information architecture
• Designed new workflows for training systems, environmental datasets, and mapping tools
• Aligned diverse stakeholders (scientists, analysts, engineers, outreach teams)
• Delivered tangible increases in usage, engagement, and operational efficiency

Nationwide impact, with double-digit traffic increases.
