The public
Bilingual lab website
The lab's research, team, and news in English and Spanish, designed and built from scratch. I manage it ongoing, so updates happen without the lab touching code.

CREAR LabBilingual website and research system · University of Pittsburgh
A bilingual public website that gets a university research lab found, and a private system that runs the lab's day-to-day research. Both built from scratch, and both still managed by me.

The problem
Great research only matters if the right people can find it.
CREAR Lab (Community Research Exploring Adolescent Resilience), led by Dr. Andrea Medrano, studies how families in Latino/a communities thrive in the face of violence. It needed a public home that works in English and Spanish.
Behind the scenes, the lab also needed one place to run its research sessions. That meant knowing who is next and which research assistant is working, with a clear record of every change.
What I built
Research team
CREAR Lab Portal
A private portal, reached from the site's Login link, with research assistant check-in and an audit log that records every change.
