I want her to make herself proud, in a room I’ve never been in, doing things I never dared to try, with a voice that never flinches.” -Unknown https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/inclusive-communication monthly 0.5 2025-09-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1af059cd-b522-4a03-be38-11f7beb5d8f9/Dark-Academia-Surreal-Wall-Art.jpg Sonnauta Blog - Inclusive Communication: A Partnership - I think in pictures. This means that when I speak, I’m translating visuals into words—in real time. That process can affect the rhythm of my speech. I may pause before answering, stutter occasionally, or use metaphors to explain ideas. I may also look away or close my eyes while listening. These are not signs of disconnection—they’re part of how I stay fully engaged and process what’s being said. [Image Caption: This way of thinking is what inspires my artwork—I often use visual art to process complex concepts and experiences.] https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/why-space-theme monthly 0.5 2025-09-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/420a7e48-8ce6-4fd7-bed3-2bacbc9eea38/Sonnauta-Free-Discovery-Call.jpg.jpg Sonnauta Blog - Why Space? The Story Behind the Theme - The Overview Effect is a profound shift in awareness that astronauts often describe when they see Earth from space. From that vantage point, the planet is revealed as one interconnected system, where every element influences the whole. I bring a similar lens to problem-solving. My neurodivergent perspective allows me to notice patterns, connections, and systems that others might overlook, and to translate those insights into practical solutions that foster accessibility and inclusion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1261aafe-957a-4de0-8f55-e705530d51cb/neurodivergent-processing-thought-constellations-sonnauta.jpg Sonnauta Blog - Why Space? The Story Behind the Theme - I have hyperphantasia. It means that I think in vivid images, textures, shapes and analogies. For me, ideas don’t line up neatly—they spark and cluster like constellations. A single question or fact might light up many connections across disciplines, experiences, and stories. This way of thinking is shaped by my neurodivergence, but also uniquely my own. It’s how I learn, understand, and remember information. It also allows me to map out solutions that feel intuitive, creative, and often surprising to others—like tracing new constellations in a night sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/ec3e2a04-bc28-4e13-81a2-fef570679958/overview-effect-neurodivergent-processing-sonnauta-solutions.jpg Sonnauta Blog - Why Space? The Story Behind the Theme - The name of my business, Sonnauta, comes from two Latin words: sonna (sound) and nauta (sailor or explorer). I chose “sound sailor” because of my unique relationship to sound, shaped by both a hearing disorder and auditory-tactile synesthesia. The name of my business, Sonnauta, comes from two roots: sonna (sound) and nauta (sailor or explorer). I imagine myself as a “sound sailor,” navigating the signals, voices, and layers of meaning that shape our lives and systems. Space exploration inspired this name. Just as astronauts venture beyond what is familiar to discover new frontiers, I help people and organizations explore new ways of thinking—ways that honor difference, spark creativity, and build stronger connections. https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Coaching monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Accessibility+in+Design monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Neurodivergent+Perspective monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Accessibility+%26+Inclusion monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Mental+Health monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/category/Trauma monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/tag/Accessibility+Consulting monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/tag/Problem+Solving monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/tag/Neurodivergent+Perspective monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/tag/Overview+Effect monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/blog-sonnauta/tag/Inclusive+Systems monthly 0.5 https://www.sonnauta.com/portfolio-consulting daily 0.75 2026-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/63b78427-5f26-4f4b-ae88-d09502ffa56b/Sonnauta-Reviews-Coaching-Consulting-Background.png Project Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511743693-J3A8OYH6X8C7RXNU5K0J/20140301_Trade+151_0124+1.jpg Project Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511387030-5LI1E5QMVTQ2RY9S00A4/20140228_Trade+151_0046+1.jpg Project Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511440608-5BVMHVN4WR2I9YQV1WWR/Aro+Ha_0010+1.jpg Project Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511467879-K5J9BYNACHJVDV3BNSFU/Aro+Ha_0387+1.jpg Project Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1757799417875-2CS1H6BCO7QD876FQ3O3/unsplash-image-okkwqpKX2qw.jpg https://www.sonnauta.com/portfolio-consulting/mnprov-website-redesign-4xap9 monthly 0.5 2026-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1780349471609-43HD0D4QIXJHT4MG26NP/nonprofit-web-design-homepage.jpg Project Portfolio - Looking Forward Life Coaching: A Digital Transformation - Homepage [Before] Issues with color contrast, readability, cluttered text boxes over a distracting background, video with no transcripts or captions, and an unresponsive layout that failed on mobile devices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1780349496183-AVC3Q3H41GGCTETU750U/digital-accessibility-consultant-nonprofit-sonnauta-coaches-before.jpg Project Portfolio - Looking Forward Life Coaching: A Digital Transformation - Coaches & Staff [Before] Staff directory was a single, scrolling list with outdated information and poorly cropped images.

Site loaded so poorly that standard testing tools timed out before they could generate a performance score. Front-End Homepage Challenges No SEO title or meta descriptions throughout the site. Poor Color Contrast and Visual Clutter made it very difficult to read. Lack of clear heading structure, as well as empty buttons and broken links made screen readers ineffective. Layout was not responsive and broke when viewed on phones or tablets. Social proof section difficult to see and included just one, very old quote. No links to the organization’s social media. Outdated terms and vocabulary relevant to the community they serve. Accessibility Poor color contrast and visual clutter. No video captions or transcript. Inconsistent heading structure.

Outdated information and listed coaches who no longer worked there. No information about the coaches, such as short bios. Unclear next steps in user journey with no call-to-action buttons, options to book an appointment, or visual cues. Extremely small text, poor color contrast, and repeating background made text difficult to read. No logical headings and list semantics, making screen reader navigation ineffective. Awkwardly cropped images and headshots with no alt text. Backend software clutter, caused poor page performance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1780349631034-3SLWDV2EXBAH4M6ROSOT/non-profit-Website+Redesign-Mission-Vision-Values.jpg Project Portfolio - Looking Forward Life Coaching: A Digital Transformation - Solution: What Guides Us To reduce clutter on the About Us page, I created a dedicated “What Guides Us” page to highlight LFLC’s mission, vision, values, and impact.

Background with solid, high-contrast sections that are easy to read. Organized text with a logical heading hierarchy that screen readers can follow. Interactive accordion dropdowns for the "Values" section to share information without cluttering the screen.

This also allows for each game variation to be played as a stand-alone game, depending on the interests and skill-level of the participants. https://www.sonnauta.com/portfolio-consulting/mnprov-website-redesign monthly 0.5 2026-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/4d567b30-c57e-4120-8d09-8beac920d736/nonprofit-web-design-consulting-sonnauta-solutions.jpg Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - Homepage (Before) Cluttered layout with sections competing for user focus & attention. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1757431606321-U6XOKH0JUPHAX9DZ43ZA/squarespace-web-design-consulting-sonnauta-solutions.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - Homepage (After) Streamlined structure with clear messaging and 3 user pathways. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/cb32d75d-27fb-400b-91a1-32657f4fc24e/digital-accessibility-website-design-sonnauta-solutions.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - What Drives Us (New) Dedicated page for mission, vision, values, and impact — reducing clutter on the homepage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/5371e2e6-7871-4700-9c60-d39ca57ed25f/digital-accessibility-consultant-nonprofit-sonnauta+%281%29.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - Corporate Training (Before) Cramped, text-heavy layout with weak calls to action. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/c3ab9b8b-2ef2-47ce-83d3-fe90185ad401/digital-accessibility-consultant-nonprofit-sonnauta.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - Corporate Training (After) Modern, accessible design with bold hero, clear CTA, and scannable sections. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/39d7b193-a43a-4e50-bcce-b16c807b041d/digital-accessibility-website-design-sonnauta-solutions.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - Video Transcripts (New) Centralized page with transcripts in an accordion format for accessibility and easy navigation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/4d567b30-c57e-4120-8d09-8beac920d736/nonprofit-web-design-consulting-sonnauta-solutions.jpg Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - The Challenges Brand & Visuals No visual hierarchy. Organization’s purpose is unclear. Cluttered layout with too many sections competing for attention and focus. Mission, vision, & values were cluttered & hard to scan. Calls to Action & SEO Buttons scattered with no clear user path. No SEO title or meta description to support visibility. Accessibility Visually heavy, too much info at once. Image carousel with auto-play animation and no controls (play/stop/slow). Important text placed inside images. Low color contrast in several sections. Overwhelmingly bright colors in some sections. Inconsistent heading structure. Missing image alt text and video transcripts. Footer lacked redundant links. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/1b2f161d-98d4-491c-8be0-4c5551029eed/squarespace-web-design-consulting-sonnauta-solutions.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - The Solutions Brand Identity & Visual Hierarchy Modern, symmetrical design with breathing room.

Mission, vision, and values content was reorganized into a dedicated space for storytelling. Accordion blocks make the page easier to navigate, reducing cognitive load by letting visitors expand only the sections they want. Impact content is now framed alongside the organization’s values, reinforcing their brand identity while keeping the homepage streamlined. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673a6931d91d750d0794a41b/5371e2e6-7871-4700-9c60-d39ca57ed25f/digital-accessibility-consultant-nonprofit-sonnauta+%281%29.png Project Portfolio - MNprov: Non-profit Website Redesign - The Challenges Brand Identity & Visual Hierarchy Color palette (purple, orange, beige) clashes with logo.

Each video on the site was transcribed and linked from this page. Accordion blocks allow users to open one transcript at a time, reducing clutter and preventing overwhelm. Each transcript section includes clear links to the video itself (on YouTube) and back to its location on the MNprov site, supporting easy navigation. The page is intentionally simple — no extra images or distractions — to maintain focus and accessibility. https://www.sonnauta.com/portfolio-consulting/category/Squarespace+Website+Design monthly 0.5
