Technology Transfer Program
BC Honey Bee Producers Association
The Technology Transfer Program (TTP) is an initiative of the BC Honey Producers Association that supports beekeepers through research, education, and extension services. They partnered with me to fully rebuild their outdated WordPress website with a focus on clarity, organization, and ease of use for both visitors and administrators.
Designed to streamline access to valuable resources, the new Squarespace site presents technical information in a clean, digestible way, making it easier for beekeepers and community members to find what they need. I reorganized the content from the ground up, creating an intuitive structure and layout that staff can confidently update and maintain.

The Challenge
The Technology Transfer Program needed a website that reflected the quality of their research and services while remaining accessible to a wide range of users. The existing WordPress site had become difficult to navigate and even harder to maintain, with fragmented content and no clear structure. Visitors often struggled to locate key documents or updates, and staff found it challenging to keep things current. In addition to restructuring the site, the goal was to create a more streamlined way to accept donations and to set up a simple not for profit online store to support fundraising efforts. The rebuild focused on developing an intuitive layout that would make complex information easy to find and easy to manage, without relying on outside technical support.
"Working with Dev was a total game changer for our program. She took our chaotic old website and turned it into something clean, professional, and incredibly easy to use. The new structure makes it so much easier for people to find what they need, and for us to keep things updated. The addition of the store and donation platform has already made a difference in our fundraising efforts. We’re so grateful for her thoughtful approach, attention to detail, and ability to make something technical feel manageable."

The Strategy
Accessibility, clarity, and long-term usability were central to this project. I reorganized the site’s content into a clean, simplified structure with intuitive navigation and clearly defined sections. Dozens of disjointed pages were consolidated into a streamlined experience that makes key resources easy to find and simple to update.
To support the organization’s broader goals, I set up an online store to help raise funds through product sales and integrated a donation platform to make it easier for supporters to contribute. The visual design is minimal yet approachable, with a custom layout built from the ground up in Squarespace. Strategic use of hierarchy, formatting, and white space helps guide readers through technical content without overwhelm. The final build empowers the TTP team to maintain and grow their site independently, with no need for ongoing developer intervention.
