“STEMA_cg took an immersive approach to our digital presence needs. The first steps included meetings with the department leads, and staff to better understand what they do, how it contributes to the organization, and how these teams build collective value for our customers. From there the architecture of the site was crafted to make certain the internal narrative could easily translate to visitors. Ultimately, we couldn't be more pleased with the structure and messaging.”
