Ad Astra Group is a grassroots youth development organization. With the mission to "bridge the gap between education and employment in order to see young professionals placed in careers they thrive in and love", they provide valuable resources and counseling to youths aged 15-30 to assist with lifestyle planning and career development.

 

adastragroup.org is the culmination of the organization's resources made easily accessible. The user interface was designed to be friendly and simple paired with a UX that is intuitive to lead youth through an easy three step self guided process for career discovery.

 

The website process began with pen and paper wire frame sketches, followed by Illustrator mockups, and was finalized with a Joomla! template that best matched the content I had laid out. 

 

Being a grassroots organization, I saved the organization money by using free stock images and vectors and manipulated them accordingly.
