During my time at the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) I worked on both the AAP site as well as their Healthy Child site. The AAP website was more geared for pediatricians and government relations while Healthy Children was geared towards parents. You can view examples of each site by followng these links.
AAP.org
During my time at the American Academy of Pediatrics, I worked on two different websites. The primary audience of the AAP were its 67,000+ physicians and lawmakers. This site housed many legal documents as well as research articles and journals. A synopsis of my responsibilities in this position were:
- Maintained and updated content to the SharePoint 2013 CMS
- Reviewed web page functionality.
- Ensured that all content adhered to website style guidelines.
- Maintained the project calendar and made sure all projects met deadlines.
One of my biggest accomplishments for this site was developing structured metadata on an enterprise-level CMS with over 50,000 documents, 10,000 images and 20,000 pages.
HealthyChildren.org
In conjunction with updating this site, I had to work simultaneously on the HealthyChildren.org. This site served as the AAP’s parenting website where parents could view articles written by our pediatricians on a variety of topics
My responsibilities for this site were similar to that of AAP’s in addition to:
- Generated their sweepstakes entries and notified winners.
- Created and sent monthly newsletters
- Worked with our Spanish editor to build out the Spanish website.
- Created images for organization’s Pinterest page.
- Performed User Acceptance Testing for the site and all new features.
One of my biggest accomplishments on this site was growing HealthyChildren.org Pinterest account from 4 pins to 892 pins, 21 boards, and 2,745 followers.
During my time at the AAP, I learned very valuable skills that I use in my current position and that will benefit me in my future endeavors. It was in this role that I received a few awards that I am very proud of as well:
