Artist Statement
Lucky 7 Fishing Charters is built on family values and a passion for fishing. Their commitment to providing personalized, memorable experiences for their guests inspires my approach. By redesigning their website, I’m creating a more engaging and user-friendly platform that mirrors the welcoming, family-oriented atmosphere they provide on every trip. This project goes beyond aesthetics—I’m helping a small local business grow by using user-centered design and business strategies. I’m also developing merchandise designs and a merch webpage to expand their reach. This work is impactful because it promotes Lucky 7 Fishing Charters, a small local business, which lacks the resources for expansion. My work will help enhance their digital presence and attract new clients, all while staying true to their core values. My aim is to support both their needs and long-term growth through a cohesive digital strategy.
